After about 25000 km on the OEM rear shock, I am thinking about an upgrade.
It has been on the soft side since day 1, but I was not in the position to replace it, and I managed to tolerate it for the time being.
Questions:
- Has anyone installed an aftermarket rear shock and what brand and type (emulsion, piggy back)?
- Has anyone modified the OEM rear shock (stiffer spring, revalved)?
- What is your opinion?
(I am around 100kg kitted up without cargo, and I am at 100% preload)
