Well I've finally done it, I knew it was coming... my front shocks are history, capoutte! I overshot a double and sprained one of my wrists. I guess it could have been much worst.. the frame is OK :D

Time for an upgrade I guess, darn eh?!

OK here's my question.. I know it's been asked a million times but I have just never paid attention to it really. What's a good combination for A-arms and shocks?? Price is a big factor.. and I want to go +1/+2 on the A-arms

I'll probably end up going with the elka shocks even though they are quite expensive.

What would you all recomend?

Mostly fast trail riding but I go on the MX tracks quite a bit too..

I hit fairly large jumps so I need something that will last.

if pirce is a factor go with works shocks and houser + 2 a arms, rico is running +1 and ge like his set up for mx.
If money isnt pep or elkas with houser, walsh, roll design, lsr all make good a arms it is all up to you...

rico got +1+.5 becuase he rides trails and races mx... he also bought a set of offset rimz to give him +2 when at the track and when he puts on his bigger trail tires it goes right back to +1...


i am goin to do +2 eventually...
