Hi at a recent adv meet in n.Wales i had the misfortune to break my nitron shock, i guess i was going a little too hard to stop for a drainage ditch across a trail so i gassed it some more and pulled on the bars, bloody big thump, and that snapped the shock rod at the lower spring mount
            
 when i got home i contacted nitron and they wanted the unit back asap [it's 20 months old, warranty of 12].
            
 so they checked it over and concluded, it's had a hard life 
            

, tho should not have failed so they decided to modify their production basically, a 16mm rod instead of a 14mm unit, tho that meant changing quite a few items and it took a couple of weeks
            
 So just before the lakes meet the modded unit was delivered, no time to fit, is now tho! a few pics
             
             
            
 
             
             
             
             
             just in time for an adv camping event in sw.France I'm sure i'll give it a good testing!
