Is it worth the extra cash to get the Fox Float RL on my Kona A PUSHED?
I use the lockout quite a bit, will I miss it?

You'd be better replacing it with an RP23. I did on mine and it transformed te ride.

I never liked it locked out, always had her fully open. TBH I wouldn't bother.

what size shock is it? I've just received a Float RP2 direct from HK (ebay) for 87 quid delivered , they only have 200x50 I think

FAIW I always preferred her with a Vanilla rather than a Float.

Aye, as daffy says, 165x38...
Looking at the RP23 led me to the RS Monarch 4.2...
Thanks for the input people. Daffy and Hairychested, can you tell me what it was about the RP23/Vanilla shocks you liked on your A's?

I always thought it rode more smoothly at the back with a coil shock. It was smoother, comfier and more as I wanted it to feel than with a Float. Mind you, I never had her in a difficult terrain, only London, Surrey and Polish mountains near Szklarska Poreba where Polish MTB Cup took place.
