G’day Rollers,
has any of you tried or even heard of this product?

It looks a better product than the single-adjustment YSS or Malossi aka Paioli, or the Matrix with no spring (Use your OEM spring, they say)
I am tempted…my rear shock is too jumpy even on preload 6, indicating oil wear as it has run over 47kkm.
 
The shock has arrived from Taiwan.
It looks like the real deal, the black edition hopefully will hide the white spring and show some interesting understated colors for those who‘s looking. Looks a very big diameter. Can’t wait to have it installed soon… my stock shock is pretty much fæcked now, working on high preload only.
 
After few months of riding, I believe I have finally adjusted the shock the way it should be.
Preload smack in the middle (130mm of the range 127-133mm) and may want another turn to firm it up. Rebound to max. Dampening to taste, on the go. Initially felt a bit "interfered" with my left boot on the passenger peg against the caninster, not anymore. Looks awesome, all knobs easily adjustable. This is a great product but will make you think of the front...
