The current shockwiz compatibility list suggests that the hose will contact the air can on the latest upgraded shock.
I think they mean that it will hit the shock adjusters on full compression.
I've got the valve orientated slightly differently to standard so, maybe with a solid valve extension (you can get 120 degree bend extensions) it might work ok.
I guess as long as there's a way to fit it without any contact on compression it would all be ok?
Anyone else got any experience with this combo?

We use one of these:

The shockwiz hoses have chucks on the end of them that are very fat, it causes the chuck of the hose to contact the air can as cane creek put the valve in very close to the air can.

Thanks. Already ordered a cheapo selection pack of schrader angle adapters from amazon. Assuming they aren't too fat and don't leak it looks like they'll to the job.
If not, I'll try one of those topeak ones.

The 90 degree Schrader valve extender from halfords or cycle republic works on the IL air cans with about half a mm clearance at full compression.
