They have 2 different sets per bike to choose from. One set is stock height, the other you can set to 1 or 2 inches lowered with the use of some plastic circlips.

You do use oil, only 5oz to keep things lightly lubricated, it has nothing to do with suspension damping whatsoever.

Got it. Thanks boys. I will eventually be doing a shotgun air set up in the back. I'll make sure I pick up this monotube set up for the front.

I ordered the monotubes and installed them this afternoon - the dive on applying the front brake most certainly appears better - I feel it's a fair improvement all round, but haven't used it long enough to give an honest review.
