    Right? Guess I should've went King, not saying Kings don't leak but you hear about them having less issues in here. Maybe cause more people run Icon?

    No. It's because ICONs have a shit seal cap design, a shitty 2 piece dished piston, and you have to charge them to 250 psi just to get barely tolerable results.

    Update: contacted Icon with the photos of the Leaking shock and my original receipt. Couple days later they get back to me stating they'll honor the warranty, calling it "close enough". Told me to just get them the shock and they'll do a full rebuild. :bananadance:Very impressed with that kind of service. Now only if the shock doesn't leak again I'll be very happy

    I checked mine last week when I installed new UCAs. No leaks. Have had them installed for about 9 months
