Quick question, does the reservoir not hit the seat tube? I have to have my DHX 5 reservoir down to stop it scraping...

Jelley (Nov 29, 2010 at 16:00)

nope, i found it hits the bottom plate, the way you have ures mounted if u bottom it out

Really?! My setup is EXACTLY the same as yours and I have to have it facing downwards. Hmm, what year is your DHX?

Jelley (Nov 30, 2010 at 3:32)

2009

Same... Okay that is confusing me, I have no idea why we have to have ours different ways around.

yours aint 2009 , old decal

Ah fair point, either way, there isn't THAT much of a design difference between the two shocks that wouldn't allow you to have yours facing down and mine facing up?

Jelley (Nov 30, 2010 at 6:37)

ture, i took the spring off so i could bottom the shock out and see which way it cleared

Sinistersoulz (Nov 30, 2010 at 8:32)

That's is actually a really good idea, I'll try it tonight or tomorrow

Nope, it hits the seat tube about half way through the travel. When I have the reservoir down, it just about clears everything throughout all the travel. Confusing!

will be a different bottom postion and also probably u have a small frame

Maybe, i'm 5'9" and it fits perfect.
