fox shock rp32 versus fox shock rp2

[laskey]

Hi Guys I have the option of buying either one of these, which is the better shock of the two.

 

What price should one pay , second hand for thses shocks.

 

[Thug]

The better one is the RP32 as the Pro-Pedal is fully adjustable.

What bike will it go on and what kinda riding will you be doing?

[turtlek]

all depends on your riding and how active you would like your suspension

 

 

 

in other words do you want a fully adjustable shock (rp32) or do you want a shock with the necessities (being the Rp2) both shocks are very user friendly and require little maintenance but if you want the one that will last longer just due to better homework being done then look at the rp32

 

 

 

not too sure about prices though

There will be NO difference in the longevity of either of these shocks. The only difference is that the pro-pedal is adjustable on the RP23. Many people will be just fine with the stock settings of the RP2 (me being one of them). As a result of missing the extra adjustment dial, the RP2 is also a few grams lighter.

 

Note that the RP2 is only available as OEM, ie you can't go out and buy one as an aftermarket part somewhere.

thats why i want a job like thiers sit in bike shops talking k@k all day long and get a half decent salary from it!!!

ok... so the propedal on RP2 - equates to propedal setting #1, 2 or 3 on RP23? (I would guess #3 (stiffest))

 

Any ideas what the RP2's fixed propedal is like in comparison with RP23's propedal settings?

 

[GoLefty!!]

The RP2 has a prset propedal setting.

If this is a non OEM shock and aftermarket then the propedal seeting is similar to "2" on a RP23.

 

What type of bike do you have. There are some leverage ratio issue that could influence your decision.
