Fox Van RC ex Supergo - WOW!
« on: March 27, 2003, 12:33:39 am »
OK, It just arrived care of FedEx - just 3 days, impressive.

Total weight with 650 lb rated spring = 1026 gms (2.2572 lbs).  Spring on it's own 683 gms (1½ lbs)!!

Spoken to MOJO (UK Fox distributor), for my weight 175 lbs (birthday suit) and XC riding style I need a 450 lb rated spring.  So it's over to Go Ride for a Ti spring.

I've mounted the shock (minus spring) on my Oz (large size frame) and looked for any interference - non at the top, just need to file / dremel a small amount from the swingarm pivot braket so that the collet washer has room under full compression.

The stroking of the shock is so smooth and the rebound and compression clicker adjustment is really controllable.

Post again when I've ridden with it on the bike!
