The original first generation Specialized FSR used a 5"x1" rear shock. Only Risse Racing makes new shocks in that size. Unfortunately, this makes the shock not compatible with the Schwinn Sweetspot.
The early FSRs also had the Alps shock with a much more durable steel shaft on it. Even though it's heavier, it's preferred since the shaft cracking is a common point of failure on the Alps.
