[:p] found it it says 2" 51mm like you thought [:D] i should have 20-30% sag so between 10-15mm of sag. Which one do you think would be best more of less?

it doesn't seem to say but it looks like about 20cm measured by a ruler. Why?

the easiest way to measure the sag is to do it on the shock length,

so let us say the i2i is 200mm and the stroke is 51mm we know the length at full travel will be 149mm. yep.

also as you did say the sag in the stroke. but lets take a figure of 25% so 12mm of the stroke but take it off the i2i and we have 178mm now if you make up something to measure the C/C lenth of the mounting bolts it is easier than measureing the distance moved on the stroke with the ring. ie you dont actually measure anything you just check.

SS i know but the problem with the Giant way (the o ring) is that is does not cater for the ham fisted ones who do cause the sus to bounce. giving an incorrect sag reading.
