TroyBrock Posted August 18, 2014 Report Posted August 18, 2014 What would happen if you used long travel shocks (16.5") with regular a arms? Yes it's a stupid question but please give a real answer before your wonderful sarcastic remarks. Quote
okbeast Posted August 18, 2014 Report Posted August 18, 2014 The front end of the bike will sit really high and all the angles will be terrible. Quote
TroyBrock Posted August 18, 2014 Author Report Posted August 18, 2014 That's what I thought, and I'm guessing it'd be the same for +2 or +3 arms Quote
Deadbeat Posted August 18, 2014 Report Posted August 18, 2014 the guy selling those shocks says he selling them because he needs standard travel for his bike and bought them by mistake, i looked around at some alba thread and 17" seems to be the length needed for long travel arms..soooo those MIGHT be standard length shock for a bike that isnt a banshee at 16.5 just throwing it out there...but at $85 id prolly still get them and see how it pans out, youd could prolly resell for double no matter what they are for 1 Quote
TroyBrock Posted August 18, 2014 Author Report Posted August 18, 2014 (edited) That's what I was thinking, one thing is I won't know what weight they're set up for or if they leak until I get them Edited August 18, 2014 by TroyBrock Quote
