Has anybody fitted a 7.785/ 2.25" shock to a Mojo?
This would give about 6.25" of rear travel...my idea would be to create a bike in the vein of an Intense SS / GT Sanction.
Strength would not be an issue as the Mojo seems very tough, and I am not big on getting a lot of air.
There seems to be enough clearance for the extra rear triangle movement, and also lots of tire clearance....
Combine a longer frame with a 160mm fork this geometry would be very much ballpark with the Intense 6.6/GT Sanction .
Reading DW's comments on the sag having little effect on the anti squat etc had me thinking about this.
Of course rotating the frame two degrees has some effects, as would using something like a fox DHX air, but I think those would be very secondary compared to spring rate changes and weight distribution etc.
This means I could get another Mojo frame (but an XL rather than a medium)
