It would be nice to see standardized motor and battery mounts so you could upgrade as things die

Anybody have information on simplicity with which it could be revalved? Is it just a shimmed base valve? Any pictures of the guts of it?

Thanks so much for stating low stack is a con. An XL bike with stack less than 645 is not an XL bike. Yes we can add spacers, but robs you of reach. Compliant riser bar options in 50mm+ range don't exist yet, just DJ bars that beat the shit out of you, or expensive Enve or custom Ti options.

I mean, the official solution is to set the preload correctly, which is step 1 in the manual of every coil shock. I just point out that you’re probably fine if you choose negligence instead.

I've found that if the preload is insufficient the spring will brush up against the "rub guard" and make a noise that resembles what you are experiencing on compression (not the tire rub). I would describe it as kind of harmonic. It rubs even more under wet and muddy conditions. EXT told me that the rub guard protects the main...

One criticism from Vorsprung and others from the recesses of the internet is that Grip 2 VVC is incapable of achieving high levels of compression damping. Were max compression settings on the Charger 3 noticeably greater than that of the Grip 2 VVC, in your experience?

same here, 650 stack bike, 30mm under stem and 38mm rise bar at 6'1. On an XL bike with 505mm reach it's pretty much perfect fit for me, but I wouldn't want to be much taller.

Is it an engineering challenge to pull off mucho stack for XL and higher sizes? I'm 6"1" and running 30mm of spaces and a 35mm rise bar on a bike with same stack as this ones XL (642).

Been running it for a number of months now with no issues. Like anything what I do regular bolt checks but haven’t had any problems so far.

I've had a split clamp stem (different brand, but very similar) for almost two years with no problems. That isn't very long, but for reassurance check out how many DH stems use this style of clamp.

I'd counter that 26/27 is within the range of average pressures. Pressure is pretty terrain-dependent, and while that might seem high for PNW conditions, 26/27 is pretty normal for many other areas.
