From earlier in this post .... I used the ports often and the bearings were like new after two full seasons

If you are like me you hated to grease the bottom pivots on the M9 because the top one is almost inaccessible.

On my Uzzi both ports are on the underside of the link so there is no problem but on the M9 the top one is a pain in the ass. Short of pulling the rear wheel and dropping the shock, it could not be reached by any sort of grease gun.

Here is the $3 solution if interested … time for me to start cleaning!

Does anyone happen to have a working link to an M9 owners manual?

Also, I'm just about to pick up my first M9 (late to the party I know) and I'm wondering if you need to lengthen your chain if you plan on extending the chain stay length from shortest to longest.

PM me your email. I have the PDF of the manual. And nope, don't need to mess with chain lengths.

Hi guys.
I don't suppose anybody knows the rear shock hardware widths are? Can't seem to find anything on-line.

Are the stock zerk grease fittings a tapered thread?

Just wanna add my setup currently: I weigh 170 with gear

Progression: Middle
Angleset -0.5 degrees
Chainstays in the shortest length
Vivid r2c with a 450 LBS spring
8.5 Inch travel setting

This is how I have it set up for bike park riding on flow trails but still able to handle the tech stuff.

Out of curiosity, how many links are you all running in your chains?
