I would definately get a larger stiffer shock and have it designed for the 450kg you expect, but it will need to be revalved as well or you will have riding issues, this is hard to do on the stock shock.

Apologies for the ingnorance - revalved? What do you mean? Do you think a custom build one from Hagon Shocks for 345£ sound like a good deal? I don't think forking out additional 125£ just for the adjustment posibility is worth it. Or maybe it is?
I still will get in touch with that reactive suspension lot to find out how much it would cost.
Thanks a lot!
