Lost in the world of rear suspension.
Just finished building up my new KHS x904r frame. It's a full suspension XC bike. The rear shock that came on the bike is not the original, it is 2 seasons old - a rock shox SID race (no lockout)
I find that the shock is a little too spongy for my liking - I have always been a hardtail fan but finally made the switch due to a deal on the frame I couldn't pass up.
I want to sell the SID shock while it still has life in it and get something with lockout, preferably remote lockout, or possibly a platform shock which would match my front fork (fox f100x, platform)
I've been trying to figure out what shock would be best for me to buy, and I am LOST! I do strictly XC, and do some racing, so going fast is priority #1.
Any recommendations???
