One thing you should mention regarding shock fit/compatibility is that, in general, the orientation of the shock does not matter - either the front/back orientation or flipping it vertically. The dynamics are identical independent of the orientation. It may look a little odd, but you can fit some shocks with piggyback reservoirs in more bikes this way.

One point I've noticed for choosing between air and coil can be rider weight, which is especially important for very tall riders (i.e. people at the very limit of XL/XXL frame recommendations). Thanks to maximum recommended air pressures, air shocks have a maximum weight limit before sag simply becomes too much to ride with. With a coil shock, on the other hand, sag is dependent on the spring weight, and there are plenty (or at least enough) 700+lb springs available that would work for people too heavy to run air shocks.

The more complex a rear suspension system is, the harder it is to upgrade to a better, compatible shock that is tuned or can be tuned the proper way. Then again, this is a great guide, thank you very much!

Good point. Most videos talk about eye to eye sizes and stroke, but rarely somebody talks about the rear shock simply do not squeeze into my frame. I was negatively surprised when my new Fox shock did not fit due to LV and SV size difference. And there is very little info about that in general. Frequent rare issues, yes.

I over-stroked my yeti during a lunch ride. Not only did my longer stroke length feel amazing for me but but it felt better for others as well. Finally with a longer stroke length I’m now able to stuff some shoots I’d never be able to reach the bottom of previously. It feels awesome ! 😜 but for the best feels...I'd highly recommend over-stroking your shaft while simultaneously under-tickling your seat tube.
