Ok so I have had my Lapierre froggy (basically a beefy spicy) since February and have had to replace the linkage bolts that connect the shock to the frame twice. I'm sure this isn't normal but, they are done up quite tight (20nm). If this keeps happening I may just buy ti bolts for them as I'm sure they won't bend!

Anyone got any suggestions?

Maybe worth upgrading to a heavy duty pivot kit if it isnt already.

You must be bottoming the shock out hard to bend them,maybe add more air,or more compression damping or get a bigger springf depending on what it is

Ti bolts will probably bend too, or snap.
