Hi folks , just looking at the size of the rear shock on my 2022 140 actionteam is 205 x 60 trunnion , I have a Marzocchi bomber CR coil shock at 205 x 65 trunnion will I be able to fit that ?? I know it's only 5mm different in stroke , just thought I'd ask before I fit it ,

Regards Stuart

A 60mm stroke shock is the same overall length as a 65mm stroke shock; the 60mm stroke is restricted. It’ll fit but you’ll need to check nothing touches at full compression.

Hi Stuart,

Just found your post by accident while looking for this answer. Have you gone through with your install? How did it go?

Thanks!

But.. fit the shock, let the air out of it and push bike down into full compression, check nothing touches, IE back tyre hits the seat post... if nothing touches your good to go, remember to push it half way into travel every 50 psi or so when re inflating it

I am waiting for the regular 205x60 shock, but I was really curious how far I can push the frame. Arm has probably 80mm of travel without touching anything, but that's without shock, so it might change after install.
