Hi, want to put a coil shock on my nukeproof mega, current size is 200x57, there's a fox shock on eBay that I'm interested in but the stroke is 7 mm shorter, 200x50, can I run that, will it just make the bike a tad slacker on the angles?or will it affect things way beyond that? Any advice gratefully received! Cheers, si

It won't make it any slacker as the eye to eye length is the same, but a shorter stroke will mean less travel. I'd keep looking for one with the right stroke unless you want to shorten the travel on your bike
