I wouldn't bother with fitting the smart shock,doubt you'll find any improvement in performance plus it wasn't the most reliable unit out there,shame they didn't fully develope it,
I'd go for a Risse genisis or look into fitting another make of shock,eg checkout Frankd3000's conversions,don't think there's many shocks out there that don't require some form of adaptor,Risse's on the other hand are a bolt on fit.

Well, the NR2 is lighter and you won't find any advantage by using a smart shock.
The electronic can't be felt in any way.
That's why I removed the battery from my smart shock to save weight.
