Discussion on Elka vs. Kings vs Icon differences

Which to choose from and why who has them and let's see the different opinions if there is a thread on this please delete mine

 

Difference in similarities?

 

All leave you broke lol

 

Big thing is dampening characteristics. Icon digressive, King progressive. Elka no clue but guessing progressive.

Best thing yo do is find someone local with your final 2 choices and do a ride along.

 

I’ve got fox 2.5 front and soon to be ads rear if u wanna take it for a spin

I went Elka.

 

Where you from bro?

 

I've had 4 different set ups but nothing to brag about. Only what I can afford . I just really wish I could afford a better suspension

 

I’m on the coast 30 min south of sf. Ah it’s all a money pit to be honest lol. Like just set it up for what your looking to do. Like for me I did fox cause it was rated better on road then most. I could do a 2.0 in the rear till I could afford what I’m doing now. But fox doesn’t have a triple bypass that would work without me cutting my bed and I don’t want to go that route. Keep in mind guys did a lot 15-20 years ago with way less. This is also a business for people. Look at overlanding “rich people camping” rigs and crap is like 150k when ur done with all the latest junk. You need a tent 4wd something to cook off and a cooler. Sometimes I see this stuff and think it’s the fast and furious of 4x4. Don’t get to hung up and the perfect parts just enjoy. There is a class in Hollister hills for emergency off road and recovery it would blow your mind what they do with stock rigs and where they go. I would look into taking it super cool stuff
