I have been looking at replacement shock absorbers lately and have come to the conclusion, given the era of CNC there are a lot of nothing to write home about products with hand machined and assembled price tags.
Still kicking myself for passing up top of the range Wilber's twin shocks with high and low speed adjustable damping for a then asking price (used but excellent) of $700 (US$490)
Even a pair of Ikons are in the $600 range but am sceptical of the alloy body version long term.
I've got about 50,000 miles on a pair on basic Ikons with absolutely no issues. In fact, I don't even think about the rear end at all so, they must be doing well.
