The MIP shock cartridge spacer set was highly recommended on basically all of these, but then I found that they are discontinued on the MIP website, and not in stock many (maybe any) suppliers.
I then found the TKR6708 product, which appears to be similar. I searched this thread and only found a few people comment on the MIP product, and only 1 post regarding the new Tekno equivalent. So is everyone using either the MIP or the new Tekno replacement in the shocks, or just smashing the 2 X-rings directly together and bleeding shocks more frequently than pretty much all other models on the market?
I am using the mip spacers. The tekno ones will also work. Without them the shocks pull in more air and therefore require more bleading. I personally like the spacers but they are not 100% needed.
