I like the idea, but $2100
Just for the rear? 2100 for all 4 is pretty good
Rear only
2100 is less that 4500!I like the idea, but $2100
The iqs shocks are amazing. Ran the skins ARC back in the day and loved it as well. These type of solutions narrow the gap from a 155 to 165
All the 25-26 Fox options and packages are available for pre-order, or for those confused about pricing:

I definitely notice a difference moving the clickers in the rear suspension. But I am still too lazy to ever do it. It would be nice to go from party to go with a push of a button.
$500 premium is honestly pretty fair for that feature. But, Fox shocks are just not worth the money in my opinion. I do think Fox is great on the MTB side but that's really only with some manufacturers like Pivot who works closely with Fox and nails the tune. Perhaps they can get to a place where they feel worth the extra $$ but the Burandt tune sets I've ridden have made the Carl's Velocity Revalve look like the best deal in sledding.
Hopefully some competition can get a similar offering. The RockShox Flight Attendant MTB stuff is cool as hell.

I've thought the same a times, although the aftermarket quantities are just so small for the snowmobile segment.
RockShox is owned by SRAM, which is not anywhere close to a powersports-interested company. They patent all their innovation so others can't steal it.
There are only a few manufacturers of sleds, and all require different specs. It's a very small market to see anyone new try to break in or innovate extensively. I'm pretty impressed that we have Fox, Ohlins, Exit (Zbros), Raptor, Elka, and probably more than I can't recall. Lots of these folks are likely selling less than 500-1000 sets of shocks a year. That's not a large volume profitable business that can support innovation.
Back to your point about the Carl's Velocity revalve: if only Polaris could "nail" the stock valving like Pivot does with Fox... and they own Walker Evans!
I went this route instead. For $1200 Ill jump of and turn the dial, but if they were regular price. I'd love to have the push button. In my eyes shocks and clutching are worth spending money on. For the first time I kept the walker evans on the front of my khaos and I didn't think they were to bad, so ill keep them and get them revalved

Valving, apparently.
Pre ordered the full 26 set. Qse khaos rear, and new qs3 fronts. They claim a full set is 6lbs lighter than stock. I'm sure the gains is less than my WE monotubes but I'm excited to give the fox floats a shot.
Yea I was tempted to just order the discounted qs3's I heard the new fox 26 qs3 and qse has no more rebound adjustment. Pretty bummed on that honestly and almost had me order the older set. I am excited about the lighter weight of these shocks as well as the qse push button function.
