Right i have a 2002 Azonic Eliminator with a Fox RC (500lbx2.75"), but i can't get it set-up right. Here's the parts hopefully you can help me get it set up correctly around-

- 888r 200mm fork
- 26" wheels F+R with 2.5" Michelin comp 24's
- E13 chain guide (44tooth max)
- 42tooth DH chainring
- Profile 3piece cranks
- I definately want it set up at 8.5" travel on the back

Please can you help me in as much detail as possible because it is really bugging me, it either hits the seat tube, or the chainring rubs, i just cant get it perfect.

I have contacted Azonic several times but have recieved no help.

Thanks very much and any help greatly appreciated.

ok, pete that guy is running the same setup as me. use the middle hold for the plate to frame mount. the lower mount for the main pivot, and forward most mount for the seatstay pivot. oh yeah I run a 9.0x3.0 5th on my bike... so I get closer to 9.2 inches of travel...

so what if the resevoir hit the frame once, it is clearance now on its own with no problems since. actually took a little bit of filing for my setup but you won't have that problem with the shorter fox. anyways thats how we both have our bikes set up. seems to feel the best too as we both messed with the different mounting points. I occasionally tag my rear wheel to the seat if I run it low but thats my own fault. I can take a pic if you want to see it cyled through its suspension with this setup.

I have one...I use a PUSHed Fox Vanilla RC 8.5x2.5
I Use...
Upper frame/shock linkage mount
Upper shock position
Upper Rear Wheel swingarm
Upper/front swingarm/seatstay link position

Thats how I have mine setup and I get the full 8.5 of Travel.
any questions let me know...That works for me...
You may also want to contact Chris Reilly at Azonic...He is the one that helped me out. He is super Cool.
btw, It's really cool that you guys are using the 5th, I was told it wouldnt fit.
Can you give details?
