They softened up the suspension as well, which is a good thing for my 138 lbs. Stock, the seat didn't sag at all when I sat on it, and now it sags close to 2"...
Awesome.. I think my lady is 5'6.. so that would help tremendously!
Although I like the adjustable ones because when I ride I can just jack them up

Those are raising/lowering links..
Kouba makes them:
KoubaLink Order Form
They are quite the pricey!
I think that one is the 1.25" lowering kit.

Wtf lol, I want to get rid of it. I bought the bike used and it came with it. I wonder if I can just remove it from the bike by unscrewing those two bolts? I like my bike being high as possible.

I'll swap you for the stock ones?
You pay shipping for yours and I pay shipping for mine.. and we are both happy?!

Let me know.. It will raise your bike at least 1.25"

Is this for your bike or your womans bike? Sounds like a plan.
