Rear suspension
« on: August 15, 2016, 07:39:52 AM »
Just curious what y'all would recommend. Looking for new rear shocks. I ride 50% solo and 50% 2 up. Looking for a good shock in the $150-$200 range. I like the classic looking progressive gas shock. Not really looking for anything with reservoirs. I know hagon makes a nice one but it's outta my price range. Just looking for recommendations so I don't buy junk.

This

their customer support is great too. Tell them how much you weigh, how often you ride 2 up etc and they'll get you what you need

Thanks all. I ended up finding a pair of hagons at a good price.
