Attention Smoothie owners... The Fox Float RL that came with my bike is dead... I'm now looking to replace the rear shock and I was curious what you Smoothie owners are currently running and your overall level of satisfaction...
Options I am considering:
Rebuild and custom tuning of the dead Float RL by PUSH...
Fox RP3...
Cane Creek Cloud 9...
I like the idea of a "platform" that the PUSHed RL and stock RP3 would add but both RLs I have owned have been a PIA at times... I had a Cloud 9 on my old bike and really liked it (reliable and serviceable) but it lacks the "platform" the newer more advanced shocks offer... It the "platform" really that big of a deal on the Smoothie? I liked my old Cloud 9 so much I'm tempted to just get another one...
Your thoughts and input would be greatly appreciated...
