Bought a Bomber CR 230x60mm some time a go for my Rail 22 Large, long story short... did not fit. Shimm'd it down to 57,5 stroke, still hit the downtube on bottomouts. Sold the Bomber, going to order the Jade X'

So got it fully installed today, feels great and no problems thus far. But i might need a stiffer spring - Does this sping look a bit small? I thought i did The math right for 60mm stroke…

So I installed nylon shims to reduce the travel to around 57mm, think this will work’ piggyback did not hit The downtube on full compression (bouncing)

Size Large

Yeah, i was wondering about that, but do it need to be special "shims" Or is it like normal washers? easy to install/buy? The stoke is now 60mm on the cr- so I can lower it to "stock"

Any tips on how I could make this work? ...before i try to return the shock'

Yeah its rubber …

So I got my Bomber CR today, and it is a really close fit. It does touch The downtube on full compression, but I thinking we Are takling mm here… I have heard That some people use «nylon washer» to travel down, what Are those? Are they Easy to fit?

Yes that is what im worried about. I was looking in another theard and i think one guy made it work' though he was on an XL 21 frame i think., so i hope it will work on an Large.

I just ordered a Marzocchi CR (60mm stroke) (on sale) to see if it will fit, might have to switch the minolink,...but hoping it will fit. If not I think i would try the Megneg. Anyone tried out the new DB8 brakes from sram? Any suggestion on brakes with good modulation and power? (And not break...

Sorry for The revive, but did it work? Looking to buy one for my Rail 7 2022 /Large … 57,5 or 60mm stroke -mabye if i flip The minolink?

Hey guys! So I have started my bike build, Trek Rail 7 2022 (LARGE) -with the intentions of making it a "budget brawler". I like my bikes easly maintaind, long lasting, "set to forget" and "Hard hitting". Normaly I ride enduro/downhill oriented tracks - and want to upgrade it for that intent...

Hi guys, Looking through this thread for inspiration as im looking to upgrade my shock (Trek Rail 7 2022 Large). Anyone tried out the Marzocchi Air shock? Will it fit? Iv been in contact with by local Trek dealer, but they could not give me an answer... and Marzocchi themself has not contacted...
