Default Berg + Zero + Berg Shocks .. what oil ?

Any advises on what oil weight to use on a berg with the zero chassis and the berg shocks ? (standard rig, tires, etc, just zero chassis instead of stock)

I wouldn't recomend running the berg shocks at all. 90mm shocks is what it was designed for, but they will work. I can't promise good results though. The stock oil should be fine.

Yeah, saw them, looks good, was wondering if other companies like HPI, Losi, Hobao, etc do some, so I can get them here in the UK

I use the slightly longer version of this shock in a droop front end with excellent results.

I run the stock shocks full droop, internal springs and 3/4" fuel line stoper out side for ride hight. 35wt front 70/35 (about 1-2mix rear)
