shock question

[Gargamel]

ok saw some Olhin shocks on ebay

 

rear shock

 

they're for a cannondal and measure the same as the stock rear.

They're cheep and mine is toast. Or do ya think it would not work good???

 

The same person also has fronts on ebay and do you think those would be worth trying out. They're only $75 a shock so even if I had to get them revalved (if possible). It would be cheeper then anywhere else.

 

front shocks

 

I know crap about shocks. The only thing I do know is the stockers suck ass and I hit frame to ground on jumps (landing) sometimes and want something better.

Well they eye looks narrow and the hole too small. Though these could be dealt with, just something to ponder. Otherwise looks like a real good shock for cheap.

the link to front shocks was wrong I fixed it so you can see the measurements.

 

there no rezzy ohlins

Those shocks were on ebay a couple of weeks ago, the rear shock was like 18" and the fronts were 17.5"....too long for a shee..

The fronts sound long to me too. I don't know what the length is for a +2 shock if there is even a difference. But the rear is 15" eye to eye, and thats what my stock measures. The rear is what I'm most interested in cause they're so much new and my stocker leaks. Would be surprised if it has oil in it.

I'd go for it. You can't beat that for $75. the ohlins are completely adjustable so you might be able to fine tune it closely for you. Shit I might even try one...

Hell I didn't even see the fronts.
