2009 Fox Float 36 RC2

February 20 2009 No Commented

Oh dear… since I have had the Fox Float 32 RLC’s on my Orange P7 I discovered that for a big guy like me, air shox seem to be the way to go… spring rates just don’t seem to be able to take the pounding as well.

Well… looking around, the perfect match for my DHX 5.0 rear shock is the 36 float RC2 at 160mm.

Here is the problem: £685 – ouch!

Maybe the R version would do at £100 less?
