Any thoughts? It's to replace a knackered Float R on a 100mm trance, it's not mine but I think i'd like to replace it with a lockout at least or propedal if possible. Cheap is key! Would normally just think RP2, but rockshox forks seem to be coming on a long way but are the rear shocks as good as fox offerings considering they're probably going to be cheaper?
What about these new X-Fusion shocks? Any good?
Cheers
I was going to say that I thought these have a weird shock size don't they?
Checking they are seemingly 165x38 (older original) or 184x44 for TranceX and they do seem to be available (new). Though seemingly you are limited by what RS shock you can get in the 184x44 length (going by the RS site)
The Fox R should be a "propedal" shock unless it's a really early version. Personally I'd get it serviced, and while doing that get it tuned to the required riders weight/useage
I've yet to be convinced that any other air shock (other than Cane Creaks new one) is as good, don't get me wrong the new RS stuff looks good & we can hope it turn out so (more cheaper choices) but there no long term tests yet or any shouting it's loads better than their old fox...
