2019 Marzocchi Bomber CR Coil Shock Review - Jan. 28, 2019, 8:47 a.m.

I understand your disappointment, but it's been clear for about a year what Fox's intentions were with the Marzo brand. That ship sailed a while ago. What can be celebrated here, is that these rear shocks fill a considerable gap in aftermarket rear shock availability at the price point. Nothing inferior about that.

I read the first few sentances thinking, "get this guy a stumpy evo...", then finished your comment. That's on my radar for sure, and I've never EVER been much of a Specialized fan. Kudos to them for pushing that into production.

The 29er pic is taken slightly farther away, if you compare axle-to-axle distance. I'd imagine that's why.

I'd say there's nothing inferior about this product. Relatively affordable, fits everything, and works.

Another factor, customer wise, is that you can now get a lower-range coil offering in almost any configuration, trunion, metric, standard, all the lengths etc... While the Fox RC was mostly just OEM these days.

They are pushing affordable/reliable performance down to Marz, while keeping the fancy stuff for Fox. I imagine they'll continue aligning the product lines that way as time goes on, which makes sense to me.

Ha ha, I'm with you on the uphill endos. I thought I was the only one.

Giant Swage Lock-On Grips Review - Jan. 16, 2019, 8:21 a.m.

Thanks AJ. Very interesting product to which I probably would have otherwise been oblivious. I love the ease of lock-ons, and usually go for pretty average diameter grips, but a bit more rubber damping would be well received. Cheers.

Lol, he certainly is... BK.

He very reluctantly agreed to my "progressive" geometry. In fact, he tortured himself for days over it (as is his way) until he finally made me come over and try my buddies old XL Crimson to make sure the length was OK.

The bike's an absolute beauty, and fits great compared to my previous rides.

Crimson is the pseudo brand, a buddy makes them.
