    Buddy just happened to be filming and caught my rear binding and then releasing while I was flexing, or at least that's what it looks like. Any ideas on root cause? Dakars with Icon 2.0 shocks in the rear.

    I would guess it's the shackle. The stock inverted shackle probably got stuck for a moment being pulled at full flex like that.

    Thanks, seems like the mechanism to cause the shackle to bind. I'll just keep an eye on it and check torque of those bolts.
