OK, no B. S. here! I put on a set of the Makin Trax XP progressive springs on my stock XP shocks and went riding at the Little Sahara Dunes in Waynoka, Oklahoma this weekend. I frequently ride this park and our group has sort of a set routine for thrashing through the park. As soon as we hit the trails I could immediately tell a huge difference in the ability of the suspension to smooth out the choppy stuff and not bottom out in spots where it would have before the spring change.

On the big open runs I could tell the rear end of the XP was hooked up and biting much better and didn't feel unloaded until somewhere close to topping out on speed. This really made me feel much more confident that I had solid control at speed. High speed performance through whoops was greatly improved. I ran through whoops WFO (60+)where previous 45 mph runs would send the rear end bouncing from side to side.

Lastly, jumping was much better! Predictable, flat & comfortable landings.

I noticed about 98% of the XP bucking and lawn dart issue was gone! I HIGHLY reccomend these springs, you will love them!
