It looks like the Works Performance Shock not the Risse Shock. The Works Performance Shock is coil/ oil and gives a plusher ride than the Risse air/ oil shock, but the Risse is a lot lighter and easier to adjust.
There was a choice of 4 rear shocks: Standard Duty
• Air/Oil = Risse Racing Genesis
• Coil/Oil = Works Performance
Heavy Duty
• Air/Oil = "Clyde-Glyde"
• Coil/Oil = Works Performance
My original Boulder Intrepid had the standard Works Performance shock and my current Starship has a Clyde-Glyde shock. To the best of my knowledge you can retro-fit the Risse shock to replace the Works Performance Shock. The Standard Duty shock is a smaller diameter so only Genesis shock would fit this frame and it would not be possible to retro-fit a Clyde-Glyde in this case.
And as for shipping, you could always ask the seller to take the swing-arm off and pack it in the middle of the frame, and that would reduce the size if the shipping box.

Could be an early '91 Gazelle depending on the "USA" Decal, the Workperformance Shock and the serial number. Interesting is the 1 1/8 headtube (?) and the additional tube (yes, it's a L).
Someone on here should grab it and take it to a good home!
