I'd like to know how you like them when you take a ride with em. I'd like the remote reservoir but thats getting pretty pricey for a set of shocks.

So far it's just the fronts but I can tell a big difference between them and the Nitrogen ones from ZONE. It feels smoother even at highway speeds

Have had mine for a year now. Good shocks and pretty affordable. Bilstein makes good stuff. I transport a 215 pound MX bike pretty often and it handles great damping-wise.

The paint was a badly oxidized mess with some rust spots.
