It is almost identical to the Hot Bodies shock except: The shock body is a tiny bit shorter. The shock shaft is about 5mm shorter. It has studs on both ends for ball cups.
Does anyone know if the shock shaft on the new Silva HPS2 is the same diameter as the Hot Bodies shock? I just measured a Hot Bodies shaft and it has a diameter of 1.95mm. I had some issues when breaking the threaded end of the shock end cap on the Hot Bodies. It would be great to replace these end caps w/ the very inexpensive Silva model.
