Hi all

I'm looking to buy a uprated rear shock but I'm not sure what to go for & would be interested to hear peoples opinions... Currently using a standard escort which has served really well but I'm moving up to a Ts1 so could do with a better shock to suite the extra go.... In the past I've tried a fancy pm shock but its a bit out of my price range (it was good tho).People have suggested R1 or R6 converted shocks but I'm just not sure I want to pay good money for something 2nd hand..Any info/ experience gladly accepted..

Cheers Mark.

Mark , i use the Protech Rear Shock on my GP and Series 1/2 which do a few miles here and there , been good so far , they have adjustment on the Spring and Damping and comes in correct lenghts for Series 2 and 3

I've using a Hagon rear shock on my GT, British made and reasonably well priced for an adjustable shock. Only done 1 season with it but so far so good

Agree with Burnside, Hagon, good value
