So what makes a shock "plush". I've always just used the stock 3s shocks and they work fine for me with the stock weight shock oil in them. But I always hear about people using "better" shocks that feel nice and plush on landings.
So what makes them so plush compared to the stock shocks?
Is it the right combination of spring and shock oil weight, does the internal design of the shock have any impact on the way the shock works, better orings, aluminum shock bodies etc? Do all these things combine to make the shock work better?
I guess in short, my question is, with the right tuning of correct springs, shock oil and preload, can the 3s shocks perform just as good as the more expensive shocks out there?
