I bought a 'spare' from the Brits last year...I found it to be inferior to the stock unit. I would like a stiffer...a more racy version which can be adjusted. Any recomendations out there?

I think Fox might still be able to make you a new rear shock. Not sure though. I think they haev a phone number on their web page you can call for custom work.
