Your ride can be dramatically improved with an upgraded shock, increasing grip and confidence when riding. A replacement or upgraded shock fitment will be determined by the spring type (Air or Coil) and Size (Eye-to-eye and stroke length).
In this video we make sure that you have all the information you need to choose the correct rear shock for your bike, and your riding style.
Rear wheel travel cannot be increased by installing a longer shock, the linkage of the frame governs rear wheel travel and is designed to work with a specifically sized shock.
As with most performance upgrades the more you spend on a rear shock the more benefits are available either in feel and support, adjustability, or both.
