I have just bought a canyon spectral on 8.0 from 2018 and i am Always blowing through the Travel at the back, and i'm already way over the recommanded psi for my weight in my Fox dps

So is a coil shock a great Idea ? If it's the case witch coil shock ?

I Saw people saying that going for a coil will increase the Travel going from 150 to 160, because the air shock is 230x60 and coil are 230x65.
Is having more Travel is a good Idea ?

The canyon spectral on 2018 have a head angle around 67' with a 150 mm fork but the spectral 8.0 have a 160mm fork so if i understand correcly the bike should be slaker by 1' so now or would be around 66 to 65' head angle. Is that true ?

Is going 170mm UP front is a good Idea ?

Thanks for your anwser and sorry if my english is not perfect i'm french

Yes the dhx2 fits perfect and gone 230x65 once you get it set up there’s no bob peddling and loads of grip/plush,win win all the way
