Well ya thats the goal... I said i would benefit from more down travel then up... Maybe i worded it wrong. More droop ie extension is preferred.
I also understand that when one side goes down the other goes up... So although id like more extension, for that to happen id need the uptravel on the opposite side to allow for it. With the bump stops allowing for still more droop on the opposite side, I want it to articulate as much as possible of course.
Isnt that your idea as well? Low lift high articulation?
I do have bump stops and limiting straps, so the shock isnt the limiting factor- nor should they be. Agreed.
Thats why Im curious to how much of the travel is calculated from ride height. Is it 50/50? Or do they compress a bit at ride height making it closer to 60 down 40 up? Or is it opposite? On say a shock with 11"s of travel, will i get 6"s down and 5"s up? Or is it a split at 5.5"s both ways ya know?
