Fork
Fox
36
Kind of a mut... mix&match of various NA1 and NA2 parts. Lowered it to 130-ish using a 160-mm airshaft. Had to use an MRP Fulfill since the piston seal sits above the transfer slot.

Additional Info

The bike was my general trail bike/daily driver from Jan 2016 to May 2022.   It was two-generations old at the time of its retirement and also looks really bad cosmetically, so I re-purposed it rather than trying to sell it for a few Pesos.  Made a shock yoke/driver and a 40-mm extension with scrap steel, which reduced the rear travel to 120(ish)mm and got rid of the bike's horrendous flip-floppy leverage curve.   The bike was cobbled together with spare parts so there are many odd/questionable component choices, but it rides just fine.
