Title: nr1=how many grams????
Post by: firsttimeflexer on August 27, 2004, 07:50:59 am

Hi I am an oz owner I am just curious if ne1 knows the weight of the Noleen Nr2 rear shock is it lighter then the nr1 if someone can post the weights of each that would be great! I suffer from being a weight weenie, it is like a disability [smiley=blankstare.gif]

NR1 - .90lbs assuming a 300# spring
NR2 - .99 lbs with 300# spring.
NR5 Smartshock with 500# spring - 1.55lbs

Just recently ran across the archive version 2 of the tech library.  Been lost for a long time!  Interesting what happens when you upgrade a hard drive.

you can cure that condition but it takes a lot of effort and the support of fellow riders. Try bombing down gnarly hills and doing huge drops. Things will get broken but when they are fixed/recovered you will feel the need for heavier stuff !
