Hey All,

I'm looking at a new frame soon, but the shock that is on it is a Monarch Plus in 200x22x8.

I wouldn't mind trying a coil eventually, but I've no idea what size to look at. I tried googling that size, but getting no results at all.

Any ideas?

That looks like 2 different sizes: the i2i (200mm) and the mounting hardware size (22x8). You need the i2i and the stroke length (how much travel the shock has, notbthe bike).

Thanks warpcow, I think you're right regarding the numbers. I'm not sure on the travel of the shock, but the frame an Empire MX6-EVO if that helps?

the stroke length isn't listed on the website. I should add that I'll be buying second hand, so I've not had chance to see the frame yet.

Thanks a lot robhughes, I've read the page a few times. Was looking at the wrong tab!
