LazyTrailRider Posted November 18, 2013 Share For the purpose of the OP maybe ask "should I buy VW Golf or Audi A3". The manufacturers are possibly comparable, but I think both models sit a little bit higher up the tree than Golf and A3... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallee Posted November 25, 2013 Share Before I got my VIPA I was seriously looking at getting a shock with remote lockout because I hate fumbling around for the lockout lever every two minutes. However, after riding my VIPA I realized that I really don't need remote lockout because when riding off-road I leave the shock in fully open mode the whole time. There really is no pedal-bob when standing (Thanks Patrick). On open dirt roads I sometimes use the "pro-pedal" mode and only fully lock the shock when doing road rides.

That is the sign of a proper and efficient suspension design - if you get that right first, you don't have to compensate or correct it by using a fancy shock!
