my son has a saracen raw2 with a ks-290 oil damped coil shock, but he's damaged it beyond repair. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions of a replacement as my search for the original unit has come up fruitless

its not a very good shock. I'd look at an air sprung budget unit such as an rs bar.0

Thnx alot supersonic i'd thought about upgrading the rear sus for him, but could you be a bit more specific as i'm a complete novice when it comes to full sussers0

I used to have a Saracen Dtox, and changed the shock to this:

You need to make sure the measurements are the same as your old one: eye to eye length (you can measure this) and shock shaft stroke (will be written on the spring in inches or mm). Pretty sure you need a 190x50.
You will need the spacers to fit it, but can remove these from the old shock (and the bolts)0
