That's my brother! Wow that's so cool! He does this so masterfully!

Just get a 20-35mm low profile seat. 2 min later your there

Muchas gracias fue de gran ayuda gracias y gracias

Am I the only person that thinks the standard height is a bit too tall to start with? I get that it has to be tall to have that much travel, but i'm 180 cm's and struggle to touch the ground. It's quite uncomfortable when trying to ride in technical stuff. It may be just thoughts?

[gradocchio]

Nice video, did you not record the Nitrogen removal/intenal damper re-adjustment (pushing out excess oil)/Nitogen refill or just skip doing it?

[baotht]

Is there 50mm lowering kit, you got that video?

[ridewithme]

How much will you estimate to do the labor of that

[kovrcek]

I know I'm quite late to the party - but wouldn't this lowering method cause more preload? As the springs are kept the same (not shorter), only the shock will travel lesser distance so effectively compressing the spring more.

The price is cheap enough… $160.00 for 3/4”… do you think they could lower it 10” or so for $1600.00… lol… that would work…

[hpenduro]

What is the difference in ground clearance??

[therealturbofanisme]

Kyle, are you no longer with Chaparral??

[samuelmandarelli]

Ya! Great! Now some poor guy that’s only 6’-3” can touch the ground on it…lol. Talk to me when you have something for a guy 5’-6”… I hate adventure bike manufacturers…lol…

Hmm Sorry, but the guy who put that shock together made many mistakes.... He set the reservoir piston dimension before head installed the seal head.
SO, when he pushed the seal head into the shock body he displaced the piston. Now the Nitrogen volume to oil ratio is Incorrect. The accumulator piston now has limited travel and will not be able to accommodate the increased oil volume. When that shock goes through half it's stroke it will hydraulically bound and cause severe and harsh jolt to the bike and the rider. Also by not inverting the shock and cycling it through it's stroke and Failed to bleed the air out. There is air in the oil and the dampening action will be erratic and inconsistent. Too bad the owner of that bike will have a FAILED suspension system.... SAD >;)
