larstrialinfo Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Hi everyone, I saw the 2012 pics of the Gas Gas. rear shock is Sachs, no Reiger. Why? Or is the Reiger only for the factory (replica) bikes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telecat Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 I suspect that cost is the big factor here. The Reiger is an Expensive shock. I have heard that it's a very expensive spare part on the Raga's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowbrow Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Anybody know if Raga is actually using the Reiger shock? He was using a Showa last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatabeta Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 He is using a Reiger. It's the only shock that will fit the new linkage. They are tiny (almost lie a downhill MTB shock) so unless Showa are making a unique one off shock his will be a Reiger. They seem very very good especially on soaking up big drop and splatting into rocks. Look very planted and stable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
