heyy what rear shock do you have ive got a 2010 bighit and have got 2011 boxxer races and am hoping to upgrade the rear shock what would any of u reccomend?

Hey dude, just wondering why you want to change the travel? Ive done some hefty drops and the Van hasnt failed with bottoming out... If you increase the travel, the headtube becomes more upright and a bit more difficult to ride through rock gardens etc. Anyone can argue with me cause this is what i thought? I could be wrong Razz But dont go insane on the travel adjustment, just get a DHX 4 or something thats nicer, but similar travel... Smile
