    Awesome animations! I initially thought the adjustment mechanism for the sweep adjustment was similar to the base or high speed valves, where I could adjust between settings (say if I wanted 70 or 80 degrees). I see now this isn't the case, given the discrete number of holes. Much appreciated!

    very interesting! super easy to understand graphics! Still waiting for a lightweight steering damper for mountainbikes to prevent jack-knifing :)

    So the base valve ist "closed" (more damping) good for sand (fast sand) or fast onroad and open (less damping) better for rocks and technical parts ? And the high speed valve is more like a emergency safety when hitting something big ?

    Do you have to re-adjust your damping after every ride or is it a one time adjust after you install it?

    Nice animation but i think you need to mirror it because its the wrong way ? If i am not wrong.

    I ran a Scotts for a few years and figured out that unless you are racing flat out high speed desert stuff they provide no real advantage and in some cases can even hinder performance, I raced enduro's for years and mainly ride mountain trail type terrain and for that a stabilizer is an absolute waste of money, that's why you don't see any top hard enduro riders using them, take that high cost of a stabilizer setup and put it into your suspension, you'll get way more bang for your buck.
