Alright. I'm thinking of putting a manitou swinger coil x3 shock on my kona howler, the shock length is 215mm. does anyone know if it will fit alright? the frame is intended for a 200mm shock, but i think its should be alright with the longer shock.

Cheers

    get the right shock. 200mm i2i with a 51mm stroke.

    the longer shock will mess up the angle and could even reduce the travel.
