Hi all,
Want to increase travel on my 04 dawg matic, aiming for a more freeridey bigger hit set up.
Obviously the front end is simple - bigger forks, but on the rear im not sure if I can just fit a longer stroke shock as im sure one of the higher specced dawgs came with 5" travel instead of 4" but im unsure whether the linkage plates were different ?
I have found some linkage plates from a company called BETD, would these be the answer to my problem ?
They seem quite expensive for what they are but obviously a cheaper option than a new bike or even a new shock for that matter, would my fox float stand up to a bit of extra abuse the added travel would encourage with these plates fitted ?
