    I was always curious about this and haven't heard definitively. Are the BP-51's extended travel or stock travel? It would seem to me that if they don't require an aftermarket UCA, they couldn't be extended travel?

    I guess you have to ask yourself this: What exactly is extended travel?

    I'm just giving you shit. I honestly don't know the answer.

    I'll take bypasses and compression/rebound adjustment over an extra 1/2" of travel any day.

    Workin' on it....
    My understanding is they are basically stock travel as per Scocar's measurements. Agree with above though on having both compression and rebound adjustment.

    Gotta keep saving my pennies....

    In short no, they are not extended travel. "its what i read on the internet from random people who currently own them"

    @AWilson013 already has extended travel under 12mph.o_O #KDSSCLAN

    Usually that means that she is doing exactly that. Unless you have a history of that or something. No offense meant.

    How about the "western Washington cool ass mofo's with BP's" thread. Sorry @PNW/TRD Steve you're on the wrong side of the hill.

    2" bore for the piston. Measured diameter is 2.85" to allow for those bypass chambers. They're big shocks. Real big.

    I'll say again... I'd take bypasses over a little more oil any day :p
