Bottom Line:
I discovered "Jerry the Hippie" be accident. When I told people "I guess I'll give Hippie Tech a chance" people chimed in right away and said this guy really knows his stuff. Jerry asks what kind of riding you do, what kind of bike and how much you weigh, then rebuilds the shock to better fit you and your bike. I'm very happy with his work. The Swinger 3-Way on my San An used to be touchy. Now it's set and forget. I can set the rebound so the bike climbs well up and over obstacles, but still descend without "packing up". My SPV also has a better range now. The shock is more sensitive to small bumps and yet the platform is actually better. The midstroke is noticeably better as well. This guy can work on older stuff that others won't touch and does work on everything, unlike Push who only work on Fox products.
Jerry the Hippie rocks.
