I really recommend changing the DT Swiss Shock.
I also had this Shock at first in my V.SX and I was very unhappy...
If you´re new to the "fully"-game it might be okay for you but with the time you push yourself and the bike to new limits, sometimes the shock will be overcharged.
It depends on your Riding Style, for me with focus on Freeride, LightDH and heavy trail riding the XM180 was a disappointment...
If your more into XC and Uphill with "cruising through the Woods" the shock might be okay...
What is your suggestions? I was thinking Rock Shox Monarch RT3, cause i intend to do both, long uphills and long downhills
AM riding in general. What surprise me the most is the price of the DT Swiss XM180 they sell this fork for about 300 euros, so expensive and not reliable?This is my frame V.SX 2012 (only different color) from bikeunit.de They had it in stock a month ago, now it's gone, in the info section there was a shock measurement: Dämpfereinbaulänge 190mm (22,2x8/22,2x6mm) also they sell some shock with a title: Votec Custom...like this one Monarch with custom adjusted bushings i guess....? I am confused a little bit about the shock sizes, there is so many..., wich one suited for my model. 190mm x 50mm? Did your shock have a lateral play like mine? Did you use special bushings like ry198 mentioned earlier?
Few other questions guys
In general what is your thoughts about the V.SX compared to other known brands? like Canyon Strive or YT Wicked both enduro category?Thanks again and sorry for so manny questions!
