Hey guys,
Please be gentle on me about this probably dumb question. I am now rebuilding my 10 after totaling (thanks guys for talking me into it, it's definitely the best choice) and am curious about maybe getting an Ohlins shock with some of the extra cash I have. Right now they are running a pretty sick deal on them, as well as the cartridge kits, and even the forks. So my question is, how much difference will just the shock make? Is it a big difference? Should I not do it if I'm not going to get the cartridge kit or forks at the same time? I realize this is a hugely broad question, but I'm curious and I feel like now's definitely the time to buy with pricing the way it is. I always thought my 08 handled well, but the way it negotiated some terrain left some to be desired a felt, and since I can afford it now better now than later right?
Thanks.
