marsbeetle Posted June 14, 2012 Share Hi Guy's, I have a friend with a 2006 Mongoose Teocali Super that has a Rock Shox MC3.1, 124/145(according to bikepedia) rear that he would like to replace. Due to its age there is not much info on it which is making it difficult to find a suitable replacement. Can anyone suggest something that would fit this model bike ? Thanks.

Headshot Posted June 14, 2012 Share Thats not that old - a comparable Fox should fit. Call Omnico and give them the measurements from centre eye to eye and they'll probaqbly be able to spec the right shock... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grebel Posted June 14, 2012 Share What is the reason for wanting to change it? (I know you said age) Is it not working properly? Wouldn't a service be easier (and cheaper)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsbeetle Posted June 14, 2012 Share Thanks for the reply. I think he just wants something with better performance and newer tech and has read about many issues with the particular model on it currently. It's squeaking all the time too which is driving him nuts and is quite common on the current shock. I did suggest he get it serviced.

That squeak may not be the shock but rather an issue with the DU bushes in the pivots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsbeetle Posted June 14, 2012 Share He took the shock off and it still squeaks when you compress it. Thanks for the suggestion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robodog Posted June 14, 2012 Share As stated above, any shock with the correct eye to eye measurement will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
