Title: Nitron R1 shock replacement
Post by: Darrimc30 on April 20, 2026, 05:56:32 PM
Can anyone give me the shock dimensions for a 3XV rear shock, I'm looking to buy a Nitron R1 from Brook Suspension and they only have a TZR250SP listed

Pretty sure my Nitron came off a track-based SP and it went straight onto my 91R but I can measure the OEM shock later if that helps?

Apologies, have searched everywhere including the remote storage but couldn't find the OEM shock unit. No doubt I will find it when I move house  >:(

Hopefully another member will have one accessible to measure.

@Darrimc30 I have a spare in the shed at my parent's place. I can measure it for you on the weekend.

^^ that one will fit, SP and R shocks all have the same dimensions.
