Hey all, first post on these forums for me. I have been ripping on a jacked-up Scott Aspect 55, and needed something bigger. So I just set myself up with a 2007 Remedy 66. It's got a Talas R 36 up front and a Swinger 3-way rear, 7.875 x 2.00. I'm looking at putting a 7.875 x 2.25 on the rear, probably either a Fox DHX 5 or a Marzocchi Roco. Any thoughts? Has anyone done this?

We checked for clearance all around, and even with a 2.4 I still have plenty of space. Cheers!

I did this with a Haro x.6, which is a shingle pivot. I checked for clearance, but the tire still rubs on the seat. So I moved the seat all the way forward. No problems. I love it.
