Orbea wild and rear shock compatible.

[Chris76]

Hey all, just signed up here.
I have just purchased a Orbea wild L and am wanting to upgrade the rear shock to a rockshox vivid ultimate air. Does anyone know if this will fit or know where I could find this out. Have contacted Orbea and am waiting on a response.
Thanks in advance..
Chris

Welcome to the forum

you need to know the eye to eye and stroke measurements are of the existing shock and see if RS makes the shock you want in the same config.

Its a trunnion 205x65, but sometimes there are fitment issues, where parts of the shock hit the frame.
Is there any list of compatibility or incompatibility?
What are the Wild 23 owners out there using and recommending?

I've just upgraded to a Fox X2 Factory. Pita. The trunnion mount is at the bottom so you install it upside down. I needed a 90 degree air adapter to be able to inflate it, (S/M frame). Went with the topeak one. Also had to knock out the bearing at the top too. Unsure if that helps but do know, it's a ball ache.
