5 wt viscosity index 400 or better, fully synthetic if possible. High vi and synthetic to reduce time before oil breakdown. Shock oil works very hard.


The following is a handy table for comparison of oil weight

Most of the newer suspension designs run a 5 wt in the forks and 2.5 in the shock. Safe is to go by what your manual says.
