I put my Pearl 3.1 shock in at Rockshox for a service and they said not only was it **** beyond all recognition (their words), they also said it wasnt up to the job it was being asked to do, which is mostly pootling around the Surrey Hills, Norths Downs and and Swinley from time to time with a 15 stone bifter on the bike. They reckon I should buy something else. Im a bit miffed as Cannondale spec them on Prophets, which is why I bought it.
So Im looking for recommendations for a rear shock for a prophet that wont fall to bits, isnt too expensive and has good pro pedal as I tend to climb out of the saddle more than I should. I remember reading you need a certain type for a Prophet, rising rate I think?
Any thoughts or recommendations would be appreciated.
