Just got the same shock - it rides incredible! Such an upgrade from the air shock I was running before.

Looks like your derailleur cable is running quite close to the shock - my brake line is actually touching the coil and I can't seem tot figure out how to keep it away. Have you had any issues?

First change to the 2021 Hightower. Replaced the Code R levers with the Guide Ultimate levers. Much better feel. Next up the Cascade Components linkage.

Looks like a couple zip ties to the chain ring side of the shock tunnel might work?

No issues yet. Might ad the zip ties that @scjeremy was talking about. Don’t think it is loose enough to get in the coil though.

The solution to the derailleur housing hitting the spring is to go AXS.

Good to hear - I haven't had any issues on my end either yet, but only have a couple rides. Might try the @scjeremy approach as well!
