Shock Interchangability for 857/856
« on: April 16, 2005, 01:10:35 pm »
I noticed there is a rear shock up on Ebay but the seller says it is for an 857, will it work on my 856?  I looked at some pics and the mounts look similar but I wanted to check here first.  Thanks.

Is this one adjustable on the fly like the astro-5?  I do a fair mix of both up hill and down hill and switching on the fly would be nice.

Anyone know the amount of travel on the rear wheel for an 856?
