who's running the C&D shock rebuild?

[450 Racer R]

Who's running the C&D shock rebuild and how is it? I'm thinking about it for mine but wanted to know what others that have it installed think...

[ZRider400]

i dont have it yet, but am sendin my shocks out tonight to them.


cant wait to test them.:o

[Lurkin]

mine will be here tomorrow.

[450 Racer R]

well when you get them could you post pics? Also a review would be nice if you get a chance to test them. I already seen the one post, I'm just curious what others think.

[the Z Man]

I have the conversion, pics are already posted, right after the 12 hours of america I took photos and sent them to Colby, he posted the pics.
I raced a full season (XC) and the 12 hours of America, as well as Little Sahara, practice and play,,,, ZERO problems, I sent them back to Colby just to see how well they held up and all he did was a fluid change.
I am very happy with this kit, it has helped me to a 6 place finish for the season and a 13th. A Class finish in the 12 Hours.
You of course will have to have them set to your riding preference, but I am very pleased, I hope this helps,,, Z

[twisted threads]

I wish you guys would stop talking about the shock rebuild kits because its making me want to spend more $money$:D :D

[Lurkin]

actually i just got back from gerogia. yea, they worth the cash to have them rebuilt.

my money well spent. these made a 100% improvement.

hey lurkin, which revalve did you get the one they had with elka springs or the new setup with TCS springs? also do you have any pics of your bike with them on? i would like to see how it sets with the new setup. i am wanting to get mine revalved for christmas. oh, and what did you get them setup for? mx, xc, or ...what? thanks, chris

[kazpr]

Lurkin what kinda riding did you do to test them out? A picture would be Great!! Thanks alot

[Lurkin]

this is the only pic i have right now, it drops the bike about 2 or 3 inches.

i had them revalved for aggressive recreational. i ride more xc type stuff, but they do ok in MX. they need diffrent springs for MX.

well dang man! hurry it up and get some pics for us:mad: , we ain't got all day here!:D yeah those look really good though. i can't wait to get mine done! :devil:

[ny300exrider]

can they valve them for +2 aarms and stuff like that?

[Lurkin]

im sure they can, ask colby.

[wvspeedfreak]

Yes they can set them up for + 2 a-arms.I just sent mine out Friday to get done and they are going to set my rear shock up for a +1 1/4" swingarm.They will give you a list of questions regarding your equipment and they set your shocks up for that particular set-up.

[Colby@C&DRacing]

Yes we can set the shocks up for just about anything within reason. IE ( 500lbs freestle) :D . but other than that it is doable

[Sportrax10]

I think im going to get some +2 or +3 a-arms, and this setup looks great for my budget... :cool:

Do we choose spring colors?:confused:

[ny300exrider]

same here, price looks like it can fit my budget and seems like it works great as well.

just need to get the 450 first;)

[ZRider400]

ahhhhh cant wait to get mine. :excited::p

[Bush0102]

what does the rebuild with tcs springs cost?

[kazpr]

I believe they are $550.00. From past posts. Good luck they look nice!! Kazpr

[Colby@C&DRacing]

The springs come red main and black upper springs

[2manycrashes]

C&D racing did my shocks and they work great. I've only ridden trails and went off a few small jumps (3ft), but the shocks worked well and I was able to make adjustments. The bike is definitely lower and handles so much better. I ride the trails at Appalachia Bay outside of Tulsa and I didn't have any issue with clearance.

In my opinion, the shock rebuild was well worth it.
