The biggest problem you'll probably have is that the fox has no compression and rebound adjustments. All of the Ohlins rears have both.

Not sure how well it will hold up but it seems to be pretty good quality. Maybe someone who has raced on one will comment.

well i raced on my fox rear shock two times, not that i didnt like it its just it snapped in half...oil all over the place and a spring bent like apretzel, it'll work for you if you don't jump big,but i do, n it didnt hold up very well. Raced the ohlins rear shock the whole season after and loved it.

There are a few sets of Cannondale Ohlins shocks on ebay right now.

I have some Ohlins rear shocks, but I have also sent soe Fox to TCS for a dual rate conversion, with compression adjustable bottle. The guys who have them love them.
