To coil or not to coil….that is the..suspension?😜

Yooo

Anyone coiled up there Mondraker crafty?
Few riding buddies have made the shift and have been enjoying it.

There’s a couple upgrades I’ve had my eye on and the replacement shock to try a coil setup is on my radar.
I’ve heard of improvements to traction, cornering grip and improving small bump sensitivity.

Anyone done it, can rate it or indeed not recommend popping a spring on the ol girl?

Thanks people

Seems a bit obvious ..but if your mates have got them and are enjoying them ..why are you asking ?

…popping a spring on the ol girl?

My girl still has a spring in her step.

I prefer an air can. The new Vivid looks interesting but it might not fit because of the piggyback.

I put a Fox DHX2 on my Rail and it's so much better. I'll never go back to an air shock on that bike.

Put Ohlins coil shocks (TTX22m.2) on wife and my (alloy) Rails, will never go back to air.

Had mine serviced last month after about 2,500 miles (300 hours?) and service agent said the shock was fine and that they see TTX22m.2's coming in for service with well over double that use and they're still working fine.
