Interesting because rocks should be one of the ACs biggest strengths besides mud and tow/haul. Maybe the test AC unit had the factory optional anti sway bar installed. This should improve easy trail stability at loss of some rear suspension compliance.

Dirt Wheels 650 to 700 shoot out

I always thought dirt wheels was hard on Acs. I bought one and rode it 2000 miles,I also think the factory sets the preloads too stiff.I like dirt wheels for info on new products. But I dont consider them the last word when shopping for a new bike.
