    yeah i figured that might be the case, but what are symptoms of too little, too much HIGH speed compression (independent of everything else)
    Do I detect a lot of anger flowing around this place? Kind of like a pubescent volatility, some angst, a lot of I'm-sixteen-and-angry-at-my-father syndrome?

    fuck that noise.

    Bottoming out, shooting to the end of travel too quickly, diving too much on bigger impacts

    Never getting full travel, only using part of it, even when smacking the crap out of things, even though your sag is in the ballpark

    Could be too much rebound damping and it's packing up. What tire psi?

    I run around 25-28 tubeless, I tried running lower in the rear this past week but I burped the rear tire and lost pressure , although I have to say the Stan's sealant and tubless is so fucking easy, amazing system I'll never go back.

    How can I get some more plushness on fast rutted out single track, i would say this is the last thing I need to get dialed, the bike crushes it but it's a bit rough, on the hands and body....

    also will a shorter stem give me a little better steering responsiveness? I feel like the bike climbs great but with an 80mm havoc stem it's a little slow to turn in tight spots...?
