I like it cus you can get it cheap from their website. I won't pay full retail for it cus I seem to end up wrecking it when I ride. I don't buy it for the fashion but more for the function.

A local "consignment" sports shop here in town had a bunch of jeresy's on for $15 bucks each so I bought a couple. Pretty crappy color selection, but I don't care when I am riding.

If they had a local service centre and didn't take 6 weeks to replace seals/o-rings, I'd be all over them.

I don't do rear shocks cause I'm a noob.

And plus, it was a warranty issue so why bother. Little did I know I was going to be out for 6 mother fucking weeks.
