Anyone out there know the spec for the rear shock (6.5x1.5 , 7.5x2, etc)
Will a Manitou S-Type SPV work on the Rush?
thanks much.

200x50

or 8"x2.0". These are the shock measurements for the Prophet.

Why is 8.875x2.0 stuck in my head

Tony (it IS early...)

Double post

 

[damion]

you have the .875 right.

The actual size is 7.875x2.0.

Do you feel better now, Tony?

The Rush actually is differently sized compared to the Prophet.

Rush: 190mm x 44.5mm (7.5" x 1.5")
Prophet: 200mm x 50mm (7.875"x 2")

Got it.

The Rush actually is differently sized compared to the Prophet.

Rush: 190mm x 44.5mm (7.5" x 1.5")
Prophet: 200mm x 50mm (7.875"x 2")

I have not seen one with my own eyes. I thought they were using the 8x2 for the lower leverage ratio.

Thanks Dan, for the correction on the Rush/Prophet shock sizing.

 

[SpeedyChix]

Probably a stupid question, but could you run a 7.5 x2? Or would it always be partially compressed?
