Hi all
I was chatting with another Bird owner recently at Aston Hill who had fitted a coil (RockShox super deluxe) to his Am9 and really rated it.
My Aeris is a 145 and I’m thinking of shock upgrades. To change to a coil would I benefit from going to 160mm Rear travel via a new linkage and then a coil? Currently 160 Upfront with a Lyrik.
I’d like to hear how other Bird owners have got on. I really like the way the A145 is now with the Air shock, I’m just really curious to try a coil and linkage, but worried about extra pedal bob and potentially not needing 160mm of travel for most of my riding.
cheers T
