Overall the Vivid R2C is fantastic. The compression and rebound adjustments are effective. The initial setup process is very quick and easy. When set up correctly, and when its working, the Vivid works beautifully.
Unfortunately, dependebility seems to be a significant issue with the Vivid. I had it mounted for 6 months and under moderate usage it began to leak oil, thus loosing all compression and rebound control. Fortunately, RockShox seems to have a dependable warranty program going.
Overall, I would recommend this shock, especially at the price point.
