I think its 165mm but I'll go and measure up.

and far play to yah, your long over due for buying something decent rather than that normal tat you collect

cheers mate, progression eh haha if you measure yours that would be great. Got a frame coming minus the shock so going to find a replacement. could you measure the width of the eyelet bushings also please?

Are you looking for the original stratos (iirc) shock? I think I have one in fine fettle if so. If not, I've a couple of ario shocks (one with remote lock out) in 165mm, or a fox vanilla rx piggy back (coil/air) in that size.

X1's came in three versions,

entry level took the Dyna Mount with a spring - XC model took the Stratos A.N.A and the Pro/DH version a Fox Alps 4R
and if you had a few more bucks you could have the Stratos I.C.D lockout - Jussa the only owner I know who owns an X1 with a I.C.D

price pending and if 165 is the correct size dude

i wont be getting the frame till late next week or weekend so no mad rush to find them unless theyre at hand. hping the paint/chrome isnt too bad. did the pro come with alloy rear ends?

I believe they were all Steel, it was more to do with groupset and suspension, the Pro came with Red DH Judys and an Alps - XC ran a Stratos and Gold XC Judys and the entry level Quadra 21R's


And none of them could ever be considered the prettiest girls at the dance....

This one's got an alloy rear end, with no disc tabs like the late x2? But on an x1 frame. Fingers crossed it's a good un

Interested to see it... Could be quite a rare beast !

would make for an interesting fusion if it's still retained the bent (Iconic) down tube of the X1



*I use the word Iconic in jest, I know its just fooking different.....

Mine's a very early version, X1's came out just on the cusp of V-Brakes hence mine running Canti's.... most were sold with V-brakes (canti mount on rear triangle removed) but never ever seen an X1 with Disc's mounts from the factory

Here's the shock I have. It's an xc pro and 165mm in length. It's got 2 types of adjustment, rebound and compression/lock out from what I can gather. Aside from a small rub on the can, it's pretty minty. I've not fitted it to a bike, I've been searching for an air option for my RTS and thought I could have something machined to fit this shock, but I need something shorter to start with length wise, which is hugely annoying as not much about that can be modified as I need it.
