[Closed] Advice - what shock for a 2010 Giant Anthem X

Hi folks

I’ve got an old 2010 Giant Anthem X. I use it for the occasional ride at work (in Oslo - although I am leaving at the end of August) and the shock is bust (the inner can has gone and it’s bouncing like a pogo stick). It’s almost unrideable.

I want to pick up a working second hand shock but can’t actually work out what size I need.

Can anyone help?

Ta
Woody

What size rear shock does the Anthem X use?
Rear shock size on all Anthem X's is 165mm eye to eye and 38mm stroke (6.5 x 1.5" in imperial).

The rebound and compression tune specced on Fox shocks used by Giant on the Anthem X is medium rebound and medium compression.
