ok guys i got my motor beefed up and now im ready for suspension! I have been looking at the Roll Design lobo II front end at duncanracing.com and it looks badass! but it is $2500 US thats like $3500 here lol (half a new bike) is it really worth it? i could afford it but i want the best bang for my buck and need to know if thats where it's at :devil

Well the Lobo is about the Best you are Going to get. The only Stuff that compares is Walsh and the Laeger T-Pin. If you have the Money I would go with the Roll. I think there is a Long Wait on that Stuff though. You could check out Walsh.

If i was going to get one i would wait till they went with elka shocks if they do. They are just as good if not better than axis.

That is NACS Opinion. We don`t need to Argue about Shocks. Elka`s must be Good or Roll Design would not Drop Axis for them.

there is a huge wait on the lobo units, like 6 to 8 months

Roll is not dropping axis. They would offer both if they are going to use elka.

Well that`s Cool Roll is going to keep Axis. I do Agree that Roll would lose some Buyers because Elka is not Proven on a Race Track yet. I think if the Elka Setup is Cheaper then the Axis it will become very Popular though. I tried to ask Jeff the real thing going on with Elka, but he couldn`t say yet.

The herman or gibson are the same as the lobo but the herman is cheaper and gibson is about the same.

The Herrmann looks the same, but the Gibson A-Arms have more of a Bend I think. They are all very Good. We can`t forget about Walsh either. He makes #1 Products.

I think Herrmann LT aarms are the best Long travel value you can get.
