    Well in the end I had to look and guess what I found?? Rear linkage rooted!!!!!!!! bearing in the shock end gone west for the summer.

    Never mind down to the local bike shop for a look thought the spares bin and guess what their was one there with shock in toe as well. So the hole unit (linkage and shock) bolted on at the right price (Free) with new rear wheel bearings($60) added in as well.

    Should have no more problems I hope.

    That appears to be not enuf rebound damping. Will be a sod to get rid of on a bucket with a shite shock with bugger all adjustments. Up the tire pressure too will help.
