Default Fox air shox?

Has anyone really tried these out yet? I have heard of one guy on here that had them and liked them, but no more info than that. Do they adjust well? And do they hold air pressure well? And can they ride smooooth if you want it to?

they just seem like an expensive bicycle tire to me rather get elkas/axis/pep/works shocks.

all the air shox that I have gone thru on my mtn bike, leads me to stay away from these due to air leaks and blown gaskets

I love my elka's

<!--StartFragment -->I have not been able to try a set yet but will soon on a Raptor.
FOX's intent is to provide a person a STOCK replacement to be used with stock a-arms.
'Most' users are satisfied with the stock width of their machines but would like better 'boingers'.

The FOX Shox are TONS lighter than stock since there is no spring. They can be adjusted with the provided air pump.

There was a write up on off-road.com a couple months ago. The author seemed to like them
