newtotrials Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Just picked up a set of TY250 forks for my TY175. I know tytrials recommends going to longer shocks and then dropping the stock forks flush with the top clamp. However with the 250 forks should one still go with the longer shocks or standard length? Thanks in advance for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feetupfun Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 All you have to do is compare the lengths of the TY175 and TY250 forks to see where to run the Ty250 forks. From memory the TY250 forks are about 20mm shorter overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feetupfun Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 I just measured my TY175 and TY250 twinshock forks and found that they are the same length, not 20mm different as I had thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really!? Very interesting... I think I am going to go with the standard length shocks and the forks set up flush. I can play with them from there by either dropping the forks down in the clamps or laying down the shocks to raise the back end... or both LOL!
