Default Ventus 2c gas spring

If your Ventus is an Experimental, look for identifying marks on the
shock and then cross reference it to an automotive part. You can bet SH
did not design and build their own...

Thanks to all who replied.

Does anyone have the spec for this shock? I need to replace the one on my Ventus 2c.

LS Technologies Canada. They can make anything you want. I have used them for Cobra trailer struts after I waited for over 3 months for them from Cobra. Had them in a week. Knowledgeable and helpful.
