99% of the aftermarket couldn't properly tune static bypass shocks(which inherently suck for street use anyway), let alone be able to properly manage active damping. Would be pretty sweet to be able to tune your suspension via laptop though

If you haven't bought already, check out Bilstein 60mm with Zone Control. They're a bit taller so packaging can be tricky, and applications are pretty limited, but it's a sweet setup. The benefit of big steps in damping ranges like a bypass, without the inherent super squishy middle zone before you get into the broad travel ranges. https://www.bilstein.com/us/en/blog/...mping-control/

Where Fox is by far the most overrated aftermarket shock company out there, Bilstein is easily the most underrated in the US.
