AutoShock - Linking Your Dropper To Your Shock (forum topic)

Posted by iceman2058 on 6/22/2017 11:23 AM

The Good:

From a designer's stan...

With the less-than-stellar Joplin and Kronolog, Crankbrothers had pretty much taken themselves out of the dropper post game, so they knew they had to go back to the drawing board and get their next attempt right. The Highline is a completely new product and a full departure from the design of th...
