   Mi9nes down 60mm at the front and 80mm at the rear and i have no problems with the pump rubbing, though it can be known to be a problem. I have a Spax psx kit and its bloody marvellous

    Will kill your shocks quick sharp
    
    ride will be harsh and bumpy
    
    if you want to go 60mm then get something like a spax psx kit
