    That price is high, especially since they have not made a reservoir before. I bet it will come down after it's been out for a bit.

    With dakars and UCA's though, as long as the CO's are decent it should be a competitive price

    You can get TC UCA's, Extended travel icon fronts, dakar leafs, rear resevoir Icons, and extended brake lines for 1k less than those

    not with the adjusters, that bumps the price up around 500+

    Ok, so 500 less. Still seems high for an introductory line. I'm definitely interested in them, but they seem a little too proud of that setup.

    I might. I might also wait for the price to drop on the OME.

    Totally missing my point. It seems as though it's essentially the same as Fox/King/Icon bypass with DSC Adjusters. Just curious why it is priced so much higher than a top of the line setup from the other big three. Thanks for keeping calm over a simple question.

    I didn't miss your initial point of comparison to the other three brads and technologies by any measure. It was fairly easy to grasp. Nor am I having an aneurysm of a complete random stranger's comment. But your statement of "a little too proud of that setup" seems odd. They are marketing their new design, and it is pretty slick. The market and independent competitive reviews against the competition will ultimately determine their saleable price point.

    Just seems very unlikely that they have some ground breaking tech that King or Fox hasn't implemented/know about already. That would most likely be the reason they are pricing above the competition, but if not, they are being proud about tech that is already in place. Will be interesting to see, but I predict a price drop on their initial price.

    I may be mistaken, but I don't believe anyone, including King, offers a bypass front shock for a Tacoma without need to modify the OEM mounting points in any way. Resi, yes, with adjuster, yes, bypass, I don't think so.
