So swapped original to a new basic Nitron.

Increased ride height (not scientifically, turned until it looked right...aka gut feeling/winging it).

The bike is so much more comfortable (it actually moved when I sat on the bike!) & naturally it handles better.
After a 9 hours "break in" I had hardly any right-hand numbness - could this be down to the ride height? Either way I'm happy.

looking good, is his the basic Nitro with a matched spring?

What's the main difference between, is it just the spring?

2.8 kilos ! Mine must be for a lorry or something!

no it has better damping design and the single adjuster effects both comp and rebound on a preset ratio

Yes, basic model with weight-specific spring. £429 delivered directly from Nitron. Expect 3-4 weeks lead time.

Money well spent I'd say

I can't say if the shock has made any difference to your right-hand numbness,

Chris.

Some people would pay good money to have a numb right hand

It would appear at there are a few "Owner Operators " on here !
