Got 2 questions:
1) ok so i'm not too sure about fork brake adaptors so i have a manitou dorado and a xt deore disc brake caliper, I wanna fit a 203mm rotor so which brake adaptor size do i get??? Does anyone here have a used one for sale?(i need it really badly)

2) not related to brakes but...since a v10 has a 2.75 x 8.75 shock length, would a longer dimension size say a 3 x 9 length shock really mess the v10 geometry badly or would it be ok???

First of all you have to make sure the shock will physically fit
plus youre likely enounter the rear wheel hiting the seat with the extra stroke on the shock. The bike wasnt designewd to use this shock,
10" of travel not enough?
