Re: lowering bike
i am looking at lowering mine and my question is how do you compress the shock or do you have to do that to fit it in the lower hole?

If you use dog bones to lower the rear of the bike, you don't need to worry about compressing the rear shock.

Re: lowering bike
ill look into it if i dont like the way it rides or feel comfortable with the ones i have. but i did see your post about the lack of material between holes and see where you are coming form. but the ones i have are pretty beefy so idk yet.
