now not on me but on the bike.
My shock spring rubs on the shock body on big compressions. This a starting to leave small rub marks on the shock body. it also makes an annoying noise!
my current setup is this: medium Intense M6, Revox shock with a nukeproof 300lbs x 3.5" ti spring. I weigh 160 lbs.
now the reason the spring rubs is because the way in which the spring compresses. there only seems to be rub marks on the top of the shock body, not the bottom.
after seeing obtainium's thrust needle bearing offering i've decided to buy a set. now the problem is that the thrust needle bearings obtainium sell only work with obtainium spring according to the UK distributor. i'm not shedding out for another ti spring just to get the bearing's plus obtainium only make up to 3 inch stroke, i need 3.5 inch.
my solution?
I found a bearing supplier that sell thrust needle bearings the right size for the shock and the spring. so i've ordered a set.
i hope it works!
