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.

no it has better damping design and the single adjuster effects both comp and rebound on a preset ratioredpig wrote:What's the main difference between, is it just the spring?

Yes, basic model with weight-specific spring. £429 delivered directly from Nitron. Expect 3-4 weeks lead time.grumpyfrog wrote:looking good, is his the basic Nitro with a matched spring?
Re: Nitron rear shock
Money well spent I'd say
I can't say if the shock has made any difference to your right-hand numbness,
