Sb120 shock

Looking for some advice. I’ve ridden my sb120 a total of 4 times (got it 9 days ago) and I’m bottoming out my shock every ride. I’ve increased the PSI to about 210, but it still bottoms out. I’m 6’1” and about 200lbs with gear. At 210 PSI the bike feels like it wants to launch me off of the seat when I hit a larger bump. I’ve adjusted the rebound to be right in the middle of the settings.

Can I add an air spacer? Mine has the fox float performance dps. Will this help? Or will it make the shock feel harsh? Is there some other shock that would be better? Or am I just not setting it up correctly?

I would classify the trails I’m riding as cross country, or at least I think they are.

Any help appreciated!

New SB120 owner

Picked up a dust colored SB120 c2 from competitive cyclist. Thought the price was pretty good! I have every intention of upgrading parts over time. I do not like the sram g2 brakes…they feel cheap. So I am looking at Hayes Dominion A4.

I literally just got the bike from FedEx today, so I haven’t even taken it for a ride. I didn’t realize the infinity switch was the “performance”. Can I upgrade to the Kashima one for a whopping $300? Is it worth it?

Excited to get this thing on the trails and see the difference from my 2014 pivot mach 6 carbon.
