Just measured the OME rear shock I have waiting to be installed, it measures just over 27" from mounting point to mounting point, not sure if thats where it should be measured but just to give an idea..

Yeah man.Originally Posted by Core XK
They should be measured from the center of each eye. Is that where you measured from? If so, they're not as short as their spec says
Yup eye to eye 27", thought Id help the thread since mine are lying next to me staring at me!!!

They claim 25.90" extended length. Being slightly over 27" is a big difference and puts them in the ballpark of the length of the other shocks im looking at. Note that I still want a rebuildable higher end shock that I can adjust the pressure in... but at least knowing their spec is off puts those OME's back on par with other standard monotube shocks that are available at "desireable" lengths.
