Thats all people say about PEP..long wait, long wait. BLAH! Thats all BS. Mark is 4-5 weeks out on PEP right now. I got my shocks from Wayne in 3 weeks, so it does not take that long. YES, I know the next reply will be well Elka only takes 1 or 2 weeks.. Well Elka has pairs of shocks piled up Im sure. Besides Wayne and Mark take a lot more time to get your valving exactly right.

I love my PEP's and wont ever ride anything else as Ive said before. Ive ridden elkas before on friends bikes too, and theyre good, but bottom line is that if you ride MX, and your friend has PEP's the PEP is gonna be the better MX shock in my opinion... What are they ZPS or what?

And for the record, Baldwin's wait on a new set of PEP's is about 4-5 weeks like R3 said... I just took mine there to get setup for my new +3's and thats what he said hes running for NEW ones. To get mine revalved and serviced is only ONE week... Im not saying theres anything wrong with elka shocks, theyre great, but I like the personal attention that goes into PEP shocks and that only 2 people build them in the nation, Mark and Wayne... Elka can get your shocks in a week because they mass build them and have alot of different people doing it...
