2021 super deluxe thrushaft travel spacer.

The added travel is right at the end of the shocks stroke. So, if you remove the spacer, and set the sag up to the same percentage it'll be slacker.

Thanks for the confirmation.. seems like I might be out of options for steepening the HTA then - other than expensive ones like replacing the fork or shock. From what I understand an offset bushing will only slacken and can't be reversed. An angleset doesn't work with the knock block either I think?

Any long term opinions on 170 front and removing the spacer? Tempted to do this when my suspension is in for a service

Hi there. Just did the mods my self to my 22 9.8, thanks to all the great reports and info shared here. Anyone know if the warranty on the frame will be affected by the modded shock?

Anyone have a clue on my warranty question? Cheers!

If I remove the travel spacer, do I need to remove the metall washer aswell? Or will it be fine by itself?

what is the best tool to cut the spacer out?

 

[Devey73]

Not that particular shock but have done it on a fox dpx, same thing, just be careful when clipping it out its quite firm material

what did you use to cut it off?

From memory used snips, just need to take care but fairly easy to do

I cutу the blue spacer in shock (RS Deluxe RT) for the Track Rail, frame gen2 frame size L, and moved the minolink to the high position.
In this mode, the chainstay bridge does not reach the seat tube with maximum compression of literally 2mm.
