You do have to wonder about how much those pressures contributed to the problems. 500 psi is insane, but even 260 PSI in the main chamber seems high. I have zero engineering background, but intuitively you‘d think that high pressures like that would be hard on seals etc. Any idea why they require such high pressures? Would re-engineering the shock to work with lower pressures result in significant performance compromises?
