Maccers Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I just replaced my rear shock with a Nitron R1 shock, had the fronts re-built too. All put back together now, few hundred miles later all good. One thing I did notice was the bike leans over a tad more than it used to, and also my son who I regularly take on the back mentioned it seemed he was higher. The new shock I am sure is exactly the same length as the old one. Just wander what changed?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maccers Posted November 10, 2023 Author Share Posted November 10, 2023 Hi, nope, the shop that done the front rebuild and supplied the rear shock will be doing this very soon. I stripped it all and re-built the bike while carrying out other bits and bobs while the bike was naked. I did notice the previous owner had dropped the front by 5mm as when I re-assembled the front end, I set the 30mm gap from the top of the fork tube to the clamp but it didnt match my initial measurement before stripping.
