Thinking of servicing my DPX2 or sending it off.
I would send it off if it's anything beyond a basic aircan service.
Or, if you have a desire, I guess Fox offers a trade in service now. You send your old shock in and they give you a credit towards a newer model. The Float X is a significantly improved shock over the DPX2.
Perhaps we should start our own MTB thread -
