[Closed] Fitting incorrect shock i2i + stroke to test frame clearance (CCDB inline)

My brother has just pre-ordered a 216x63mm CCDB inline for his Cube Stereo. I also fancy one for my Meta AM (200x57mm), but clearance for the shock itself is very tight - especially the gubbins at the base of the shaft.

Would there be issues with fitting the 216x63 (@ 0 PSI) shock to see if it will fit in the frame itself? - i.e not worried about the longer stroke allowing the back wheel to contact the seat tube and won't be ridden.

Can't see a problem to test frame clearance just don't use it

I'm pretty sure commencal say remote shocks don't fit. They sell a different swing arm now that will let you for one.

Give it a shot though.

Ok cheers. They do sell new chainstays for £350 or so, but that makes it a rather expensive upgrade!
