edited January 2014 in MTB buying advice
I have a DT Swiss nude rear shock with a remote lock out and It has got cavitation and is going to cost 140 to repair so thought id upgrade.
Where is the best place to get a 165 38 rp23?
Currently looked at wiggle £300 kashima and CRC £269 non kashima anyone know of anywhere with a better price?
Do they still sell the non kashima rp23?
Where can I get the bushings to fit my Scott spark 30?

Thanks for the help!!!

    You'll need to make sure it has the correct tune for your bike or you'll end up having to send an almost brand-new shock away to be tuned/serviced anyway. Best bet is probably to get it from TFTuned, Loco, or one of the other suspension specialists. You might pay a bit more initially, but it'll be right for you and your bike.

    not made the RP23 for a couple of years now

    a Monarch RT3 is a lot cheaper than a fox factory CTD kashima

    phone TFtuned and ask for their advice and either buy from them or buy somewhere else

    I've got an RP23 off my broken Top Fuel, no idea what size it is, but could well be the right one, sounds very familiar!

    Check it fits before you buy there was someone on another forum bought a new shock and the air sleeve hit the the frame on full compression.
