I needed to know if the fox factory float X2 at 62 1/2 would fit not the dhx2.I can confirm a 62.5mm will fit a 625wh large frame
I know I have just removed a fox dhx2 off a large frame with a 550 SLS spring
Cheap plug but it's for sale with around 20hrs on it
I have read every single one of these posts. 60 is the confirmed I was asking if anybody recently has done 62 1/2. Thanks
The TTX2 fits? Ohlins doesnt show it as fitting. Maybe that is because the TTX1 works better with the smaller air can being more progressive.I found the same the rear end is not progressive enough for a coil if you ride hard
I use an ohlins TTX2 with all volume spacers fitted and a custom tune the TTX1 you could probably use less spacers as it ramps up quicker
How much travel do you have on that shock.All good
Nice. I have the x2 with 65mm travel setup seems to be no interference anywhere. I have 1/8” gap between the reservoir and down tube. I’ve hit some fairly big stuff doesn’t seem like there’s enough flex to cause any problems anywhere. At least not yet. But I keep an eye on.Its set at 62.5mm
I’m assuming now my flip chip is in high. Here’s a photo of the position it is in. Not really sure how to read it but with the set up that I am running I have no issues with clearance.Tidy
The gab only gets bigger with compression at the seat tube for the air can so no worries there
They get close at the wheel side of the seat tube where the linkage gets close but if you run the flip chip in the high position all should be good
Hiya, hey what size frame did you put this in and wat hardware/adapters do you need to install? Cheers
It's progressive enough, I'm running a heavily reworked Jade X and it's sublime on the big stuff. But obviously it's not a sofa any more.I found the same the rear end is not progressive enough for a coil if you ride hard

Put a TTX22m.2 230x57.5 coil shock + hardware supplied by TF Tuned on my 2022 Alloy Large Rail. Can not fault it. Am 80kg ready to ride with a 525lb spring. Tried a 500lb and much preferred the 525lb paired with Zeb A2 160mm up front.
) and an Ohlins TTX M2 coil damper (230x65 with 708Lbs spring
) for a few rides and found it good BUT how will the Manitou's Mara air sprung damper compare
Ohlins 230x65 coil shock with a 708 lb spring? Blimey, that's a very 'meaty' spring!
I'm going to tread into murky waters next weekend, trying a Manitou Mara rear damper on my Rail5
back story, I have a gen3 Nukeproof Mega 290c (Wiggle discount frame set & self build) that runs Manitou Mezzer forks (180 travel) and was good with it's origonal-fit Rockshox Super Deluxe Ultimate damper (230x62.5). I tried a Manitou Mara (260x65) rear damper & found it excellent as back-back on the same day & trails in BpW...
I've been running the Rail with another Manitou Mezzer fork (set @ 180 because I can
hopefully I'll get answers this weekend
Rich.
Don't know much about the Mara shock, but one of the best rear air shocks I ever owned was the Manitou ISX-6. If you had the nerve and a couple of special tools, that shock could be manipulated to be as close to a good coil shock that I have run across. Overall it was a super tunable shock.I'm going to tread into murky waters next weekend, trying a Manitou Mara rear damper on my Rail5

If it was me I would let all the air out of the shock to be sure that the reservoir does not hit the downtube. Easily checked.
I like the idea. How does it ride?
(2022 Trek Rail Alloy Large). With an Ohlins TTX22m.2 coil shock the largest bottle I can carry is 600ml and had to modify a bottle carrier to as high in the frame as possible to prevent the top of the shock hitting the bottom of the bottle.

Thanks Irie... I asked Josepi because I have a M size too...(2022 Trek Rail Alloy Large). With an Ohlins TTX22m.2 coil shock the largest bottle I can carry is 600ml and had to modify a bottle carrier to as high in the frame as possible to prevent the top of the shock hitting the bottom of the bottle.
Ohlins TTX22M.2 coil shock
First ride yesterday on my 2022 Trek Rail (Alloy, Large) with Ohlins TTX22M.2 with 525lb spring. Thanks TF Tuned! Am 79-80kg Rail has Rockshox Pike Ultimate 150mm forks moved over from my Trek Fuel EX (ML) upgraded to 160mm C1 Air spring for the Rail. The Ohlins shock replaced the stock...
No idea, will find out this weekend!
I already had the fidlock on, it's a 450ml bottle, so not sure about the standard bottle cage.
