They still ramp up like an air spring should, and you can still add spacers to tune that as you like. You can set an appropriate sag that doesn't have to deal with this initial stroke harshness and as a by product you end up with excellent mid stroke support. The improved cans change this to be more linear. Set it harder to not wallow and you end up with with a super hard initial stroke, set it soft enough to compensate for the super hard starting stroke and you get molasses in the mid stroke. So we set our sag based on that and we end up with it sitting at a pressure somewhere compromising between soft enough to over come the initial harshness of the stroke and having it hard enough not to wallow. Typically what happens with standard can is we set our sag to 20-30 percent of the overall travel of the bike, but the spring rate at the start of the stroke is MUUUUCH higher than the rest of the stroke (untill you get towards the end of the stroke as most people understand). Corset/Debonair/EVOL cans all increase the size of the negative chamber as well as the overall volume of the can.
