Push Industries Shock mod?

Brett Jaffee said:

Anyone have experience with these guys ( http://www.pushindustries.com/ ).
Apparently, they take standard shock, like a Fox Float, and convert it to a
Pro-Pedal/SPV type shock for $140. They also make it into a two stage
shock (or something like that), and supposedly upgrade internals. I was
reading some glowing stuff about it on MTBR, but MTBR being what it is, I
took that with a grain of salt.

Was thinking this is something to check out once the warantee on my shock
has expired.

I have not found any true reviews...just this article from Mountain Bike
Action... http://www.mbaction.com/detail.asp?id=872

Here's some more reading material for you. I haven't done business with
Darren at Push, but if I had a Fox, I wouldn't even hesitate to drop it
off. Fortunately, their shop isn't too far from me :-) Anyway, he's
replied to my emails fairly quick, and seems like a great guy, just my
personal impressions. Just keep in mind when trying to contact him, he's
usually at every Norba race helping teams/riders, so don't be
discouraged if he doesn't immediately give you a reply.

It all sounds very positve. I have until October until my warantee runs
out (assuming Fox gives 1 year). I'll definitely keep up with the message
boards to see how these things are holding out for folks.

I'm just getting ready to send my Float R off my SC Superlight in to Push.
Have heard nothing but positives, and the price is right.

Brian.
