Air Shocks

Post by Bomber52 »

Generally I would not recommend using air shocks in any high shaft speed applications. Unless of course you can fit a remote reservoir. The problem is that as an emulsion shock, the damping characteristics of the shock have already been compromised

The ride will also tend to be rather floaty as that is the nature of air shocks and the progressiveness of the spring rate.
