Highlights form Singletracks Magazine review
" The DVO Topaz 3 air shock gives mountain bikers a more affordable aftermarket suspension option and easy access to tuning and upgrades.
Some things just work from the get-go and you really don’t have to mess with them to get them to feel good. That’s been my experience with the Topaz.
I’ve always been able to tell a difference between swapping from a stock air shock to an aftermarket one like the DVO. The new shocks generally use travel more efficiently and there is a big difference in sensitivity. I’ve played with the pressure a little in the Topaz, but other than small air adjustments, it’s felt great from the factory.
Bottom Line
The DVO Topaz Gen 3 is a more affordable suspension upgrade option that has been reliable, offers mid-level adjustability, and an ease of access to service, parts, and upgrades"
