KR1S Shock Dimension Required for Nitron Build

Post by RickNC30 »

Hello -

I am commissioning Nitron to add KR1/KR1S shocks to their catalogue - I have a KR1 shock to send as a pattern but need some information for the KR1S version.

1) Can I confirm that the KR1 and KR1S shocks have the same basic dimensions (length and end fittings) i.e. the two units are interchangeable.

2) Could somebody please measure the length of the remote reservoir connecting hose on a KR1S shock for me (a clear picture of a 1S shock would also be useful).

Reply here or email ricknc30@gmail.com

Thanks for your help...

Rick

Not sure if anyone has replied Rick

The shocks are interchangeable (Hagon list the same shock for both models for further confirmation)

I have measured one i have and visible hose is 435mm (as near as i can measure) between the end fittings

Thanks, Garry -

That`s the information I needed - I will be sending the stock shock off to Nitron tomorrow with a request to build both Sport (non reservoir) and Track (remote reservoir) versions.

I will put a further post on here when we have any progress.

Cheers,
Rick

In case I forgot to mention it, KR1/1S shocks are now in the Nitron catalogue - web version here http://www.nitron.co.uk/catalogue_main.php?catID=13558
