-60mm springs on boge turbo shocks, good idea??
« on: 16 July 2006, 00:45 »
If i fit some Spax -60mm springs to a set of brand new boge turbo shocks are they going to be shagged in no time, or will the shocks be able to cope with them? I'm guessing if anything they will bottom out quite a bit? Any help appreciated.

You need the shocks to match the springs. 40mm is about the biggest drop on std type shocks.

I ran pretty much standard shocks with -60mm springs and 17" wheels with no problems. Obviously with people in the back it rubbed on a big bumps. otherwise it was fine :)
