    I think it would be pulling on the shock rather than pushing it so i doubt it would work, simple enough repair though, just unbolt the rockers and spin them 180 degrees. Just seems its a bit of a mis-match with the forks, I very much doubt its his frame.....

    Yes, I thought the rocker was on the wrong way round! Must be a very old Kona for the Horst link to be present.

    True.

    Just had a thought though, BETD are selling pull shocks for the LOBO, maybe someone could try mounting one of those...... :wink:

    ah well, guess whoever buys it will have to be boring and flip the rockers back then, I still prefer my idea though.

    You do have to wonder how it got like that though, must have a terrible LBS. Wonder if he rode it?
