Does anyone here know the eye to eye on the rear shock of this frame, picked a new one from bobs bikes and would like to upgrade to a beefier shock.

Why don't/can't you measure the one currently on there?

I have, it looks like 7.5" but I would much rather have the company who manufactured the frame (or someone else who has gotten them to give them those numbers) give me the size that way I get a correctly sized shock for this frame and not one that is too short. If I remember correctly there are 7.5" and 7.875 sized shocks and I honestly don't know (and do not want to find out) the consequences of buying a shock that is too short/long for my frame.

Looks like it is 7.5"
