Default Re: Jakes long travel shocks

On a related note, the air capacity of air shocks is fairly small. That makes the effective spring rate spike dramatically as they are compressed. It is a very progressive curve. If you add some reservoir capacity to the system it reduces the rate at which the spring rate increases. A small tank the size of a coffee can would make a dramatic difference plumbed into the pair of shocks. Not sure what to suggest as a reservoir though.
