Now, I just need to find a completely free Saturday that I can go
ride around and play with all the settings on the Ikon shocks.

I not motivated to drop the forks to pop in new springs, but what
difference can you put your finger on in the forking dept. I'm running
a 1/2" pvc spacer in mine to take out the "slack".

Those Icons are sweet. I run mine on "1" (mush) and the lowest preload,
even two up this setup is the most "comfortable" for my rutty roads and
no bottoming out! Remember this is a loop on a V11 sport!
