Show us yer FSR's

I had an x-fusion o2, had... it was a good shock whilst it was working, but then it blew up. You have to send them to them to fix, and from what I have read it seems it was a common fault on that shock. They might have fixed it by now though?

Don't get me wrong, I had had it for almost 3 years and not done anything to it. Heaps of adjustment and set it up perfectly for my weight and riding style. Just 1 night I was riding the local track, went over a big bump, heard 2 big bangs like bad pedal strike, next thing the bike was trying to throw me over the bars. All rebound and compression had gone and the back end turned into a dangerous pogo stick that was trying very hard to throw me over the bars. Made for a interesting ride back to the car.
After googling the shock and the problem it seems I'm definitely not the only one its happened too.
I ended up finding a Fox Triad that fitted.
 
ok well I'll get the fox or rockshox I think to be sure to be sure.

btw how do you do a signature? I go to control panel and profile then there are three options:

edit profile
edit avatar
edit account settings

there is no box in which to do one in any of those options
 
Control Panel > Profile > Edit Signature.
At least that's how mine is working.

Can't help much with the air shocks, I'm a coil man : )
But good luck in finding something that works for you.

hmm there is no edit signature in profile nvmd.

I'm open to the idea of spring too but not sure what to get- the size is 165 for my BETD link. I have no idea how to work out the spring weight either, I weight 85 kg so is 700lbs the right coil resistance?

Thanks
