Are those specific to their equalizer shocks or can you bolt up a DHX?

I've seen a guy run a dhx 5, but they have to be set up with incredibly high pressures because of the leverage ratio. The guy I know isn't that big and he's got it running above 300 psi.

possibly... The manual has a wee part for "non equaliser shocks" just saying to make sure they don't hit the frame cos of the linkage system. My mate was tell me about special linkage plates to give 185mm of travelEek Big Grin

Not more exciting than a 2010 Reign X, though! How do you like the Equalizer shock? The one I felt was a pull shock and was horrible. Little adjustment and sticky. :/

This isn't a pull shock, it's smooth as hell and theres loads of adjustment, positive and negative air, 2 rebound adjusters and 3 settings lockout, traction(90mm) and full travel (165mm). To be perfectly honest right now it feels really weird cos its like 5times stiffer than the norco and pedals like a hardtail.

It sounds good then. All that's left to see is it's durability.
