Hi guys, basically was wondering if theres anyway to increase my rear shock travel on a trek fuel 90..

The shock fitted is fox float r (80mm) I think.

Is there anyway of getting 100/120 mm in there or wont the mounting points allow me to ???

Here a pic

Look up the likes of betd, they might do new rocker plates to increase travel.

I hate to say it but I think it may not be practical- or at least possible but expensive and maybe ill advised. The amount of rear travel tends to be set by the design of the frame...
