Looking for a shock for a '93 Trek 9000.
Mine's got the oil damper in the middle and it's sticking pretty bad. I've torn it down, cleaned and re-oiled it as best I can but it's not much better.
I've tried swapping in a 5th element air but I'm a bit too fat for an air shock on a 4:1 ratio swingarm.
I'd also be willing to trade my brand-new but not stiff enough 5th element air for a comparable replacement.
If someone has a coil-sprung shock 7.5" long with a 1000lb or better spring, I would be happy to trade or purchase it from you.
Thanks.
Shawn
