I'm thinking of replacing my rear shock with a Fox Van RC rear shock. Has any one used one and have any opinions on them? Thanks! 🙂

they are decent, LSC works well makes my bullit go from super bob single pivot to no bob single pivot for seated climbing seated, i still prefer a fair bit of LSC when descending so pretty much leave it half way and it offers a good compromise up and down.

I'm happy with mine, use it for DH and trail riding on my pitch.

Not my garden, although mine is as bad!

Lig... if you'd posted in the main "bike" forum instead of the off-topic "chat" forum, you'd have gotten more response... great shock, basic compared to DHX series, but if you want a no nonsense shock without bell or whistles, buy one.

Allmountian, Loco website isn't set up as "shop" more a point of contact/info before speaking to him and ordering kit, though I didn't know he could supply fox shocks (it only suggest he sell Diverse shock and RS forks on the site - Si get that updated!)

I asked Si about a shock and diverse don't do my size so he offered me a van rc at a v good price. Allmountain get in touch with Si and see what he can do for you. Top geezer.
