Wanted to ask here specfiically due to the high amount of technical expertese whch frequents this forum.
I have a Specialized Enduro 2010 160mm travel frame with RP32 air shock which using the standard "low BB clevis" links sits with a BB height of 14.25", I run this shock with about 25% sag, anything above this results in significant pedal strikes and becomes pretty much unusable.
I've modified a coil shock (CCDB) to fit which has the same 216mm eye to eye, however it only works with the "high BB clevis" links I have due to slightly different mounting points. This causes the BB to raise by about .25" when sat unweighted with no rider, however I can run this with closer to 35% sag so offsetting some of this increased hight.
Id like to ask is the best thing to do to run the high clevis' with more the increased sag, or should I try and adapt the low BB clevis' to work and still run 35% sag, presumably the coil will prevent it blowing through the travel like the air can does.
thank in adv
