GPR for me. Hit a root in the middle of the turn and have the bars jerked out of your hands will have you thinking twice about the neutral return. JMO

We ride in the woods here in East Texas with lot's of roots & sand whoops.

to be honest i think most people would not notice the difference between brands, but everyone will love their damper once fitted.

I really miss mine when i crank the throttle

The high speed function of the Scotts has saved my butt many times on mid to high speed rock hits. So much energy was transfered to the frame over so little time I broke one tower and bent two. I have since designed my own. Everyone who rides in the rocks here with me runs the Scotts. The WER will not do this, I had time to think about it in the hospital once.

The WER will not do what? Bend towers or work in rocks? Please explain.

No independent high speed damping circuit. With the Scotts or Fastway, you can set the main dampining to light, heavy, whatever you want, and if you hit a rock you didn't see that starts to deflect the wheel very fast, the damper will kick in and almost lock the front end for a fraction of a second, keeping the bike on track or close enough for you to save it.

The WER will not bend a tower though because it doesn't use a tower.

I think what is prefered depends on where you ride. They all work well in mostly sandy terrain.

Does fastway have an underbar setup for the 11 gasgas?
