My Blur came with the Fox AVA, which for the record worked well. I had the opportunity to purchase the 5th and jumped at the chance, cause I
to upgrade...
Anyway, the 5th feels very stiff and rides just like the Fox. Once it starts to move however, it feels SOOOO plush.
So what am I babbling about.... the 5th is an excellent pedaling platform shock. I have had no air leakage (unlike the Fox), or oil leakage. It is lighter, and suffers less sideloading. I recommend the shock to anyone who needs a new one ( or
to upgrade).
