Default Shotgun shock ?

So while I'm waiting for my shotgun to get here (next Monday) I figure I'd get some thoughts, or tricks from you guys

if it's raised all the way up, is that considered the most comfortable position

Obviously it's a personal preference thang.

But..... You get 2 switches. One will adjust the stiffness of the ryde. One will adjust the height. You can ryde with the rear all the way up, either stiff as a rigid or soft as a Cadillac. Or you could ryde with it all the way down either rigid or Cadillac. Or the infinite settings in between. That's why it's so awesome. It's a personal preference thang!!!
You're gonna fuggin love it!!!!!

So the height doesn't make any difference in comfort? Its all about the rebound switch?

Thanks.
I like it a lot. Ride feels the same too. Figured I saved enough going with the DNA over the billet daddies that I'd spend the rest on the shotgun

The most comfortable for me is to air it all the way up and then lower it 3 inches with the rebound switch but mostly i just ride on the stops and use the switches to get a good angle for parking.

+1 on the DNAs. My 18" spoke is a freakin' work of art.
