Need to at some point get a shock done for the 400..
so basically a 600 one my guess a 900 one would be ok on a hooped suspension bike.

Hector the 600 has a rebuilt and shortened original Sacs by MCT on..

I don't want the 400 much lower then he is this time the sacs shock is good after Darren sorted it out,

Out of curiosity what good shocks have people had ..
I have a shock prescription here but obviously may not be right now as not needing this bike totally as low.

My Hector came with a Hyper-pro but it was not set up for me and too long was a fab ride home not !!
Funky colour purple which I loved!
I swapped it for a short shock Carl had but thats now off the bike and needs a bumpstop and stuff plus powdercoating so Il probably just flog it as a spare for someone on the bay.

The 400 rear shock is now agony for me as its temp set up so I can get on the bike on preload I think.
Its crippling my back.

I would like something special for the little one.
I could have one refurbed again at MCT.
You never seem to see Ohlins shocks come up and not for the old beasts like mine :(

Blah blah

I had my old 750 shock rebuilt and set up for me at Revs in Halesowen, and it was lovely - they rebuilt an old RMX250 shock for me as well and turned a rusting piece of scrap into a lovely piece of kit !
