Hi there,

Can some body tell me if it is possible to transform a Rocky Mountain RSL frame into a MSL?

As far as I know the different between the two of them is 100mm of travel on the RSL vs 120mm on the MSL, but I'm not sure if a simple shock switch will do the trick.

Thank you in advance.

Depending on how obsessive compulsive you are, changing the fork length can change the geometry.

Along with potentail fork changes- I think you can change the rocker link to acheive it but I haven't seen it done in person yet.

I'm thinking on using the same travel the MSL has, not more.
