I have a RS Monarch Plus 7.5x2 lying around from my previous bike, which I want to try on my Phantom.
I have a set of offset bushings on the way, with a total of 3mm offset (2+1mm).
With 0 compression the eye2eye will be 3.35mm (1/4" - 3mm) longer than today, and with full compression the fully compressed shock will be 3mm shorter than today.
I've checked frame clearance which seems ok.
If the leverage ratio can be assumed constant, the travel will be 105 x (2/1.75) = 120mm.
Any reason not to do this?
How will the suspension work in the 3mm/3.35mm "outside" each end of the current stroke?
