For those who stopped using padded shorts, what was the advantage you noticed? What kind of underwear are you using?

Until we get more transparency in the test results and what they mean ( not just pass or fail ), I gotta believe there’s too much marketing hype and emphasis on looks. MIPS means nothing to me if I can find a helmet that will transfer fewer G’s in a head on. I think that for the most of us, our decisions end up being based on looks, price, and marketing jargon then actual test results.

I miss the Breakout as well. Ran it front and rear on a Bronson and a 29er singlespeed. Really bummed when. They stopped making it.

I just installed this post a week ago.  Unfortunately I needed to shorten the hose without a bleed kit handy.  Did my best, and everything works, but the post has a small of amount of vertical play accompanied by a tap noise that it didn’t have before I shortened the hose. I figured that I just need a remote bleed, but from your write up it sounds like it might be internal.  The only thing that changed was the hose shortening.  Any ideas?
