Sorry to see that... It must be saddening.
I would buy some UD carbon cloth and epoxy resin.
And wrap this unfortunate hit with them.

They will probably sell you a rear triangle if asked politely.
But I didn't ear they had a crash replacement policy, but who knows, you can and ask saying we are many here and it would give us some relief 

0 psi?

Thanks, I have read a lot of the thread, and wasn't sure what the final conclusion was on max stroke.

It really seems that there are too many shock options from Fox and Rockshox, and then you add in tunes ... just too many to choose from.

It was said at least that a 40/42.5/45 fox are the same, just with different sag markings and spacers. I'd probably go 165x40, but just unsure of all the models and then the tunes. And if paying say $480 for the DPS performance, and then sending to fox for a tune, that really starts to get up there in price. So maybe the RS Nude off the Scott is closer, but then I see the SID with more adjustments ... can more user adjustable settings overcome a factory tune which doesn't suit the bike/trails/rider?

Hopefully someone has done lots of research and can break it down for me in the the options are 1) Fox DPS XXXX tune, 2) RS nude, 3) x-fusion yyy sort of thing.

I have the same, how did you reach the conclusion it needs to be converted ?
Unless a warranty reason, Isn't it something you can do yourself ?

Shifting issues. Transmission or frame/hanger?

Had my FM936 built up for a few months now, 500miles and enjoyed it for the most part aside from one, rather major grumble.

Since day one I've not been able to get the gears shifting correctly.

Transmission is 12speed XT (cassette, mech, shifter, chain, optislick inner cable that I then upgraded to the polymer, SP41 outer cable).Yes, cable routed correctly. It's always a little out and as 12speed sprockets and chains are so narrow a little out is almost intolerable. It alters during the ride, i.e 1-2-3 good a start of ride but then not good by the end (even if an easy ride so haven't hit it on a rock, etc). It alters depending on the suspension setting (have a nude shock with 3 settings). It alters during suspension compression. It's never quite right.

I wonder if the clutch on the mech is partially to blame for a number of reasons. Firstly, I know the clutch affects shifting, increasing friction at the shifter and think it alters, ever so slightly where the mech rests after a shift, which if true means that because of suspension movement and chain growth the clutch is constantly 'working' and so minutely affecting where the mech sits and given how minute adjustments affect shifting it must be having an impact.

But also wonder if the clutch is actually causing the hanger to bend - as I say when the suspension is compressing causing chain growth it's effectively pulling at the clutch, and so mech, and so mech hanger all the time - it must be having an impact - which is kind of confirmed that when I check the hanger alignment with the tool it's always ever so slight out - is it plausible? Maybe the hangers on these fm936 are a little soft?

I've serviced the clutch, and backed off the tension as much as I dare and it is better but I just dont like the fact I feel like I'm having to compromise on a nice bike!

Like the idea of 1x12 but just seems to sensitive or is it the hanger/frame? - bring back 2 x 10 I say 

Any thoughts appreciated.

AFAIK 909 is UDH already...

Can you share any photos? I am probably going to buy a size L and try to sell my M. I think I will leave the shock with it, as it's all color matched at this point. I need to weight out here if the 120 rear with my 120 SID will be a better ride for my rocky, rough environment than keeping the travel at 42.5, or even 40.

Do you see any benefits of the 40mm or 42.5mm rears' travel? Or rather I should ask, is there a clear benefit to building with the new linkage. I am new to FS, so trying to make sense of it all. I had to really pump up my rear to 250 psi to make the L compression tune work for my trails, 23mm sag...

And what exactly is the leverage ratio on the OG FM936? I’m assuming this is the original travel one. I run a L compression tune, it’s very active and mutes a lot of small bumps. I have to run a pretty high PSI though, I think 260 psi on a rockshox Deluxe.

Side question here, if the leverage ratio was more like 2:1, what rockshox tune would be appropriate? I’m trying to understand the benefit of running a medium, or a high compression tune.
