Re: Modern post manufacture shock absorbers
Fought this stuff for years and finally removed the "modern" tube shocks and promptly threw them away. Stepped up tall and bought Bill Stipe. (Stipe Machine). I found them to be worth every penny. I'm not an engineer but my opinion is tube shocks beat the hell out of frames and the like. Make sure your shackles and bushings are spot on. Determine that your spring is to spec. Lube it ( I used a combo of slip plate and Kroil) Many have had success screwing around with different rebound and compression rates so good for them. I wasted a lot of time and money and all that went away with Stipe shocks. FWIW
