Flex question?
 

My wraith flexes pretty good but I just can't get the shocks to compress the last 1/4 inch. How can I get the last 1/4 inch of flex?

Are you running stock shocks? My stock shocks compress all the way when I push them in no problem

Re: Flex question?
 

No they are hr air shocks. I can push them down all the way but when I lift the front tire up the back tire lifts before the front shock compresses all the way

Its likely you have air in the shock bodys. Take the caps off and cycle the piston a few times. You should see little bubbles come up to the top. Now is a good time to check and top off the fluid as well. When you put the caps back on, fully compress the shock. If it stays compressed, its bled correctly. If it rebounds on its own, take a bit of shock oil out, re bleed and try again

Also another thing to check is binding in the suspension. While your shocks are off, cycle the suspension and see if it operates smoothly

More than likely your suspension is binding. I doubt that the air in the shocks would not let the shock compress or extend.

sounds like they just need to be loosened up a little (softer springs/loosen collar if there is one)
