Review Summary:
I bought the 11.5" Heavy Duty ones. Let me start by telling you these shocks are extremly firm. I have them set at the softest setting and it still feels like I'm going to break my spine when I hit any bumps. I am 5'11" and weigh about 250 lbs. I could have gone with the regular duty. Otherwise, good shocks and the bike handles better. Again, you do not need to get the heavy duty ones if you are over 250 lbs or ride 2-up all the time.
