Rear Shock Upgrade PCX150 LED model

Post by MayHem »

I see YSS Z Series, YSS G Series and a few others in between. What is the general consensus on rear shocks for these chariots?

Also where to snare a good deal?

Cheers

The Z series work very well and are pretty cheap. I've had them on my bike now for 18 months and they still work very, very well, especially over speedbump's in my neighborhood at speed.

Ok well a bit more info, I'm 88kg (195lb) and ride on my own mostly but when 2 up with the wife they struggle, she is 66kg (145lb). Do you think the XL would be the choice? Also where did you buy yours from? Can only see bikerbitz (cheapest of the two) and powerbypcx
