Reccomendations for RC10B5M Factory Team Kit Shocks?

Post by c666187 »

So I purchased a "new" RC10B5M Team Kit that had been built and shelved. I did not notice until it was purchased that the shocks included are not OEM. Otherwise the kit is I'm excellent shape, I so I would like to get replacement shocks for it.

The kit lists:
91496 - 12x23B/21S V2 Shock kit (B5 Front)
91498 - 12x31B/27.5S V2 Shock kit (B5 Rear)

Of course I cannot find those part numbers for sale anywhere, and I an trying to avoid purchasing piece-by-piece.

I found 70231 - Shock Kit V2, 12x23mm, but I am not sure this is equivelant/compatible? And I cannot find a 12x31 kit.

Please let me know if ther is a newer 12mm Shock kit I can buy for this RC10B5M without having to place 10-15 orders! :)

Or maybe you can reccomend an aftermarket set that is comparable/compatible.

Thanks in advance!!

Chris

I just went through a similar thing, the new shocks are 13mm.... I originally wanted 12x23 but had to get the 13x23.
I was old school - when old school wasn't cool !
