    Measure between the bolts for the i2i length, according to the trek guide, the stroke length is 50mm.

    Edit: Apologies that’s the 2010

    right iv done that and iv got 90mm does that sound about right and is the stroke measurement the length of the cylinder that goes inside the shock??

    90mm seems VERY short, my guess would be nearer 190mm.

    And yes, give or take a few mm
