Corsair Maelstrom uses 10,5" shock, Corsair Crown has an option like that if You use only 1 shock setup. Now foes hydro (or whatever that thing was called) has one as well.

Why dont you keep it. Get it serviced and shorted to fit your bike. If you want to sell it get it serviced and shorted to a more common length 9.0x3.0. It is s good shock and highly adjustable, one shock that will let you know you adjusted too much.

I've already got one. Plus I'm thinking of changing frames. To what I know not. I'm still rocking an OLD giant faith. I want longevity not the newest and greatest. Tho pondering a session or demo. That'd take care of the whistler fund tho

Well, keep the DB and put it on an Intense M6. there are still some of those frames rocking strong, great geo for DH, a little heavy. And you can now find them cheap - it's not like a year - year and a half ago when the cheapest was 800-900 GBP... :)

I do have my eye on a cheap m6. Is it too much plough for uk tho..
Dont know - i'm from Bulgaria. been to the UK 2 times, but never really seen your trails.
The M6 is known to be a go-through-anything bike, but in the same time a very pedal-friendly platform. I am a fan of it, although never been able to lay a leg over one.
