I am looking for a new 216x63mm shock for my Orbea Rallon but there seem to be some sizing issues with the frame not accepting a Vivid Air I recently got due to the air can hitting the frame.
I'd need a shock with an air can diameter of 52mm or less.
I can't find this info anywhere! Can anyone with an up to date air shock offer any help by sticking the calipers on the air can and letting me know what shocks might be suitable please?
Ta!
can you use an offset bush to lower it. I had to do that with a DB IL on a ripcord as the can would slightly touch the frame at the start of the travel but move away after. The RT debonair was fine.
The rear mount bolt is 12.7mm so there's no space for a bush sadly, plus I don't think it would provide enough clearance even if there was.
I'm reading that some coils (e.g. fox) may be 52mm outside diameter so maybe a coil shock would work. Looking in to it!
