ah, ok..that makes sense! Though if I wanted a 50mm drop then I guess I'd have to buy a lowering kit!

Can you recommend any?

a bit more pricey than an ebay kit, but you get what you pay for!

Yeah, would love to be able to fit the Brickwerk kit but at £417........

Any ideas for a 45mm lower with shocks that's good but cheap(er) ??? :wink:
