M6-l
Stenum is now using the new M6-L for Lumbar ADR. It's the newest thing on the market that is supposed to more replicate the natural disc. Stenum has been using the M6 for cervical for a few years now with pretty good success. I have the mavericks from Stenum and am pain free and doing great, but I wouldn't mind uprading to a newer model if I could.

Having polymer in my low back would scare me. I still prefer the all metal aspects of the Maverick. Isn't that why we chose Stenum?

wait a minute. you're pain free but wouldn't mind going through the operation again just for ****s and giggles? WTF are you smoking?
if you're pain free you're damn lucky. I really doubt a doctor would touch you with a 10 foot pole if you walked in pain free and asked for an updated disc. or maybe you're just being sarcastic?
