I know this is not MTBR, but I put a new Swinger 3Way on my SuperLight, and it rocks! The bike climbs much more efficiently and the front end stays on the ground. Before I added the swinger, the front end would wonder and lift on very steep climbs. It is now easy to position my body and get rear wheel traction as well as front wheel stability. Descending was confidence inspiring and very supple. I love this shock! Or maybe the bike rode so well because I wore underwear OVER my ridding shorts. :) :)

Guys, guys, guys, you can't be upgrading your bike and NOT post a picture of your new stuff!

You guys NEVER learn.

Good to hear you like the new shock, I was thinking of upgrading the FOX Vanilla RC on my Uzzi to a 5th Element. How much did you pay for the 3Way? What was the diff in price to a 5Way?

I will post a pic soon. I don't think they make a 5way. The dif in price between the 3way air and 4way air is about $40. I got a bro deal so I paid way less than MSRP.

Ooops, mistyped the number. I was thinking Progressive 5th Element and typed 5way.
