If i have a Monarch that is medium/medium tune, what does that equate to in fox world? or any other shocks for what its worth?

200x51mm shock needed or idiot proof guide to change the characteristics of the monarch - feels chattery at best repeated quick hits and the compression dial does VERY little

loco i believe has just become a daddy so is most likely busy with changing nappies and getting no sleep just now.

Unfortunately i don't know anything about rear shocks. Apart from when manufacturers spec shocks for bikes they generally consider it for Mr Joe Average, this inevitably is not everyone so there could be some area for improvement my customising your current shock or replacing it.

If you email loco he should be able to advise if it will be possible to improve your current shock.

Hope this isn't trying to teach you to suck eggs but as i said i have limited understanding of rear shocks.

Rockshox medium is firmer than Fox medium generally speaking.
