I'm used to the feedback and would say even on first revalve they're as good as anything else I've ridden. I have a few issues with the front wanting to climb out of rocky downhill ruts, but everywhere else was pretty good. As you have said, its highlighted what could be improved at the back end.

PS. I did 90+ km of mixed terrain. Was stinking hot and humid though so hard to tell what was poor fitness and technique on my part and what the fork could have done better. Nothing scary though, no spikes, and no deflection, at any pace from 1st gear to 6th.
Not sure what the springs are, (will try to get a full build spec from Steve for my info) but know the idea was to go for heavier main springs with lighter valving, and a lighter ICS spring

Will try to play around with clickers this weekend - especially on the rear. I have not serviced the rear in about 100hrs so it is due for one, but would like to know before then if i need to adjust the valving
