  1. Anyone have experience with these guys ( http://www.pushindustries.com/ ).
    Apparently, they take standard shock, like a Fox Float, and convert it to a
    Pro-Pedal/SPV type shock for $140. They also make it into a two stage
    shock (or something like that), and supposedly upgrade internals. I was
    reading some glowing stuff about it on MTBR, but MTBR being what it is, I
    took that with a grain of salt.

    Was thinking this is something to check out once the warantee on my shock
    has expired.

    I have not found any true reviews...just this article from Mountain Bike
    Action... http://www.mbaction.com/detail.asp?id=872

    Here's some more reading material for you. I haven't done business with
    Darren at Push, but if I had a Fox, I wouldn't even hesitate to drop it
    off. Fortunately, their shop isn't too far from me :-) Anyway, he's
    replied to my emails fairly quick, and seems like a great guy, just my
    personal impressions. Just keep in mind when trying to contact him, he's
    usually at every Norba race helping teams/riders, so don't be
    discouraged if he doesn't immediately give you a reply.

    It all sounds very positve. I have until October until my warantee runs
    out (assuming Fox gives 1 year). I'll definitely keep up with the message
    boards to see how these things are holding out for folks.

  4. I'm just getting ready to send my Float R off my SC Superlight in to Push.
    Have heard nothing but positives, and the price is right.

    Brian.
