Wow!
That is seriously cheap!

Anyone any experience on 5th Element or Swinger Coil shocks?
I.e. fitting to 4000 & Oz?
What weight spring do you use, I run a 550lb on my trusty NR-4, I guess the same would apply or not?

Swinger Installed. Thanks for the tip on the price. The difference in ride quality from the Fox Vanilla R to this is amazing. Frame modifications were minimal and I had to make my own spacers but the install was pretty simple.

I got mine too. A Swinger Air, 7 7/8 i2i with 2.25" stroke to replace the same kind  on my Oz but with only 2" stroke. Now I have a full 6" travel front and rear.

Thanks Jimbo!  Hey, nice bike Rhino!
