New Shock?
12/22/14 4:34 PM

I know that you can set the sag of the bike. But being 6'5 300 lbs would it be a better choice to replace the rear shock or just set the sag of the bike. I know these bikes are set up for 150 pound riders. Thanks for the info in advance.

Elroy you can crank up the stock rear shock and it will be pretty stiff stock. Im 325lbs myself and find the stock shock is pretty good cranked up on my 2012.

Having an older shock serviced works wonders. Felt better than new
