Most people are are missing what I'm saying here. I have no doubt in my mind that an 11" shock is INFERIOR to a 13" shock. A five year old could recognize that. But I love that some of you think you're breaking the news to me that a lowered bike doesn't ride as well. And truthfully, I was drunk as hell when I posted this and don't particularly remember doing it so I'm surprised it makes any sense. That said, look at my follow-up post and maybe it's a bit more clear what I was asking. Or don't. I don't particularly care anymore. I should have just PM'd the guy who I read loved the Pro-Action 11" shocks from the start like I was gonna do

Maybe you shouldn't post when you're drunk as hell or at all, then people won't try to answer your questions. Win win

Well.......this thread just got about as clear as mud. So you know that an 11" shock won't perform as well as a 13" shock. You don't want people's comments on that they are different and how they'll perform and feel......but you want info on how it's different from a 13" shock in terms of money??

Got it......
