Multiply both measurements by 25.4???

So it would be 190.5 x 44.45 but more likely just 190x44?

Are there shocks with 44 stroke - I don't know.

in google type "Convert x" into mm" and much truth it will speak....

Then match to the nearest one in the list.

or if you are really lazy type '7.5 inches in mm' into google, it does conversions for most units.

www.google.co.uk/search?q=7.5+inches+in+mm

*EDIT too slow!

sounds like you're either after a 190mm x 50mm stroke, a fairly normal shock size, or perhaps you have one of those weird specialized specific 190mm x 45mm stroke shocks? (think they used a 175 and 180mm hock on some bikes too)

Tell us the bike and it might help.

Are you trying to replace it?

My bike- 2005/2006 s works stumpy. Changing to a stock sized shock could be expensive. Bought a 200 x 50 rp23 after speaking to tf tuned. then Tf tuned changed the piston for a 190 piston and changed the internals. Also had to fit offset bushings.
Tf tuned had to have my frame sent in to make it fit as it wasn't clearing the Hollowlink.
Now rides superbly. 🙂
