Anyone know if there's anyone besides Avalanche who can make a 7.25x2.0 shock? Specifically, I'd like to find a Vanilla RC in this size and have it overhauled by Push at a later date. Found one on NSMB for sale, but I don't know if it's simply a mis-measurement of a 7.5x2.0, plus the owner wants $300 CAD and stated he wouldn't ship it. Apparently, it was stock on a RM freeride bike (and no, it's not rootbeer...). Can anyone confirm/deny if this size was stock on any bike, or give me a lead on finding one?

I just want to try it out on my RFX, to see if I can slacken and lower it just a bit for summer DHing. Don't want to lay out $550 on an Avalanche just to see how it works...but a cheap Fox followed by an upgrade if it works would be just the ticket.

Alternatively, anyone know if Push could shorten the i-i on the 7.5x2.0 that I have sitting in my garage? (I know, I'll ask them, but I'm not at home at the moment and don't have email access or a phone handy...)

Thanks,

MD

Mike, if things work out for you with the PUSHED Fox.......I know of a good home for your Avy, if you decide to let it go!

Heh, I'll keep that in mind...I'm planning on keeping 2 shocks, but if I somehow end up with 2 Pushed Foxes, there'll be an Avalanche needing a home.

There definitely was such a size fox RC out there, I think it was for old Specialized FSR's with some travel upgrade. There was one on Ebay a while ago, it sold for a ton of $$ b/c I imagine every RFX owner out there who wanted to play around with his BB height etc bid on it.... Whether that size came on RM's I don't know but I doubt it.
