USD forks NEED to be overkill to get the same stiffness this my point really in that you are over-engineering the structure to obtain a presumably identical result. The average factory DH bike is now on a similar weight level to a heavy XC bike ,over-engineering the fork structure is going backwards ..IMHO.

I'm not familiar with Dorados. Personally I think USDs are overkill on MTB and the weight is in the wrong place, I would rather have the sliders nearer to the spindles. I'm sure there are engineers who know better than me though.

You would think that Showa with their history would be trying to develop some a bit more technologically advanced , in a similar vein to a Lefty for DH or a SIMON type electronics package. Those USDs are probably a couple of pounds overweight compared to current fork tech.
