This sounds like a fantastic idea if it really works; a shock and fork tuning device that works w/ your iphone or android. Originally funded on Kickstarter and now backed by SRAM.

Once it's officially released, we may need to pool funds and get a one unit DT shared device. :D

Thanks for the linky update. I'd really like to play with one for a week or two, but my limit to pay might only be as high as $50. Someone buy one and I'll rent it. :-)

I like the reviewers comment, "Or what about integrating the technology into the shock itself, eliminating the need to buy an aftermarket device?" I suspect the suspension companies are already salivating at that idea.

.....or 7% cash back with Active Junky at Backcountry. It was 10% just last week and I've seen it go to 12% in the past. Jenson is currently 6%.

Beat me to it. Active junky is an awesome rewards site. It has quite a few companies.
