Shock Height / Ride Height
Guys, when looking at coilover shock specs.....they often mention the optimal ride height for each one. Are they generally referring to the distance from the frame to the ground......or are they referring to the distance between shock mounts?
I ran across a good buy on a set of Carreras....
I need about 14" between shock mounts. Looking up the specs on these Carreras, it says the "ride height" is optimal between 14-15". These shocks have a compressed length of 11" and an extended length of 17".
I just wanna make sure the "ride height" that's advertised on their spec sheet is the distance that I'm measuring.
