Hi everyone,
I’ve ordered a new Amflow PX in size XL and I’m thinking about replacing the stock rear shock.
I live in Spain, and most of my riding is on dry mountain terrain: rough tracks, gravel, washboard, hardpack, loose rocks, small harsh stones, roots, and sometimes bigger rocky sections.
A bit about me and my riding:
Because of that, I’m now trying to figure out what the best rear shock overall would be for my new Amflow PX.
At the moment I am looking at Öhlins, especially the TTX2 Air m.2 and the TTX22m.2 Coil 210x55, but I am open to other suggestions too.
So my question is:
What is the best rear shock for an Amflow PX if the main goal is maximum comfort on rough dry mountain terrain?
I would especially love to hear from people who:

A bit about me and my riding:
- 87–90 kg with gear
- mostly XC / trail
- no jumps
- biggest priority is comfort
- I have back and knee problems
- I want the rear shock to absorb even the small repeated hits as much as possible
- I care more about comfort, traction and quality than about aggressive bike park performance
- fork is Formula Selva S

I would especially love to hear from people who:
- ride in similar terrain,
- have back or comfort-related priorities,
- have tried different shocks on the PX,
- or have strong suspension knowledge.
