So after much research and deliberation between Fox CTD X and the Monarch debonair I went for the Cane Creek DBCS. went for ride on Sunday and still buzzing at how good this shock is...I mean seriously it is night and day compared to the standard Fox CTD boost valve that came with my Bronson.

Hi. I am after some advice re: rear shocks. I have not owned a dual suspension bike before but I am currently looking around for something cheap (older in decent condition).

I will be riding mainly XC style with some easier AM thrown in. I dont like to hit the big downhill stuff.

Considering that I will be riding uphill trails a fair bit, is there anything in particular that I should be looking for in a rear shock? I am mainly worried about pedal bob and losing a lot of momentum when riding up hills.

Removing RP2 from Reign frame

Hi all. Could somebody help me with some advice - I want to take my Fox RP2 shock off the frame of my 2008 Giant Reign to replace the DU bushes myself. Just can't find any reputable instructions for Step 1 - removing shock from frame! Is it as straight-forward as unscrewing the mounting bolts? Any school boy errors to be mindful of?

If anyone could direct me to a faithful source or instructional video, that would be an extra plus!
