Fox reservoirs are pretty small. Here is some more info: http://accutuneoffroad.com/articles/the-difference-between-emulsion-remote-reservoir-shocks

One thing not mentioned yet is that emulsions are quicker to rebuild and tune than a reservoir shock. You will get more bang for your buck out of either by having them tuned just for you and your rig. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
