Smoother drag shock

[slobanshee]

Been running shaws all the front of my drag bike. It's raced only on the dunes. Where the sand is less than smooth. The shaws are ruff as hell.. Any reasonable alternatives out there? No jumping or anything. Just looking for something much more comfortable.

fox floats prolly be the cheapest decent alternative.

also, try getting them revlaved or change to a lighter oil.

Elka Dune Editions if you want to feel nothing.

 

Works if you want a quick budget replacement for your Shaws and less pogo stick feel.

13 inch works, maybe a nice set of 300ex shocks.

i like stockers with cut coils. makes it ride very nice for free

[locogato11283]

Fox Floats will please you.

 

I was very impressed with the ride of them at LS last year.

 

Plus, they're light weight.

Yep Fox Floats I just put a set of 13.5 on my bike. way better then shaws. Plus u can play with the Air pressure.

I run 13.5 works at the dunes. Not worth wadding up your bike at Ls. Its rough as shit there

Agreed. When your bike is bouncing a foot off the ground, it's time for real suspension.

x2 or floats

Definitely floats. Also, for the rear, we're going to be tuning a custom built stock rear shock on Mike's 535 hillshooter next week in Utah. It's 12" eye to eye.

I did a custom setup as well with the stock shock. Works very nice.
