Ikon shocks - great for a bad back

Around 200 lbs with all my gear on.
Just wanted to add an observation, I'm going for comfort over performance so I have both the springs and dampers set at the lowest settings. I go around 200 lbs with all my gear on, and the rubber stoppers on the shock shafts are still a good inch away from getting to the top of the shaft. This is even after I've hit some pretty good dips at speed. That means I'm still well away from bottoming out the shocks with my weight/riding style even at the lowest settings. I really like how the progressive springs work.
