I just finished installing it today. It fits perfect. All I had to do was take the schrader valve extension off the Fox air shock and put it on the tigon. It was Cane Creek tigon trunion shock part number BDD0035 (205/65) plus a spring.

I have a medium. Getting to one of the adjustments was slightly a pain but besides that it fits perfect. Nice clearance, no rubbing, no hitting nothing. Well it finally dried up here so we hit the trails today. I have to say I was a little worried if I would really feel a difference. Just pedaling around felt like a coil shock. Climbing up some rocky stuff I could feel the traction difference. Then the fun began. Hit some high speed runs with many berms, 5' jumps and more. This was unbelievable that I could really feel so much more traction like it was on a rail. Seriously made a huge difference. On a side not I talked to Tom V at Cane creek who is a suspension guru. He told me how to set it all up for my weight , where and how I ride. Which I did and will probably never change it.

They said it will fit so keeping my fingers crossed. It was about 740.00 USD with spring
