Well if you going to do a Part 4 with the cascade link, which would be awesome. Some of us are running the cascade, WRP yoke and mullet. With the coil maybe being the missing or final piece. So you may as well go all in haha 👌🏼

I just got the Evo Pro. 1st ride was at the bike park. Second ride today was trails with a lot of climbing. I could have bought a bunch of different bikes. I went with the Stumpy Evo because of the crazy adjustability. It's a great trail bike!

This shock out right makes the bike feel AMAZING!! Ever since I got my bike I knew a coil shock would just make it perfect feeling on the type of trails I like to ride but was bummed out to know no shock on my budget was compatible at the time but when this came out and announced its compatibility I blindly just bought it straight away. ZERO regrets!! im in love with it. thanks for doing this review, it just gave my the answer to finish my tunning setup for my shock! thanks

Recently picked up and installed the Cane Creek IL Valt coil. It is beyond amazing. I built up a new Trek Top Fuel. I’ve got a Pike ultimate up front at 130mm but the dps the frame came with was holding the bike back. Mike is right on, the top fuel feels more balanced and composed especially paired with the burlier fork. The 120 coil feels bottomless. Can’t recommend the coil enough

EXT does work. I ran one on my RS coil. It’s a super light SL spring so you will save some weight as well. Comes in 25lb increments i believe. The EXT office in the US helped me get the right one.

Gonna throw a cane creek db kitsuma coil on mine gonna screw around and post my discoveries. Thank you for the push. EDIT: 05/30 first ride on the coil was a night and day difference for the bike. Traction increase everywhere the kitsuma has an amazing climb switch that makes tricky climbs easier than the float x I'm open mode. When I pointed it downhill, I didn't feel the bottom out because of the progressivity gained from the progressive vault spring from cane creek. On a long sustained rock garden I felt way more control, more supple and more consistent rebound. If you have a stumpjumper/EVO/Levo and want to get a sick toolless adjustment shock look no further than the kitsuma

I have a carbon Stevo with cascade link, ohlins coil and a fox factory 38 with 170mm travel and it is friggen awesome. A beast of an enduro bike, that's fast, handles amazing and pedals well. Only downside (if you consider it a downside) is the added weight.. but then the weight makes it even better on the way down.. so sickkkk Also to note: the ohlins has a lockout (of sorts) so I get no pedal bob when pedalling

I watched your videos on the coil shock on the Stumpy Evo. I was interested in trying a coil on my 2021 Stumpy Evo also so I contacted my local bike shop to see what options they had because like you stated some shocks aren’t approved for this bike. The shop told me they contacted Specialized and they said not to run “any” coil shocks on this bike? No sure if the shop was correct or not. Thought I’d pass on the info.

What coil shocks work well with a Santa Cruz Megatower v2? So many overwhelming options with RS, Fox DHX2, Cane Creek Kitsuma, EXT Storia, MRP Hazzard, Ohlins TTX, etc.... I demoed the Super Deluxe Ultimate coil on my Megatower and really loved it! I'm debating buying a coil, and of course, which option if i do. Part of me says RS because it feels great and its easy to setup, and the slow climber in me wants a relatively lighter weight coil ie CC or EXT.

Hey Immanuel! A coil on the Status 160 is definitely going to be different from the Stumpjumper Evo because they don't use the same shock stroke size or have the same amount of travel but the Status does have the progression to handle a coil shock! That same list of shocks that are compatible with the Stumpjumper Evo will also be compatible with your Status because they use a very similar yoke system to drive the shock.
