I have a 250X and the stock shocks absolutely SUCK! I want to know what shocks from Works would work best? I ride agressive woods and like to jump alot. I know they have dualrates and triplerates but im not sure what to get. Can anybody help me?
Thanks!:D

Any after market shock is better than the stockers.
Works would work good but if your going to spend the money on shocks i would go for axis or elkas (not sure if elka has shocks for the 300ex/250x).

i was wondering about the works until i rode a friends 250 r with the triple rates and rezzies. it felt awesome! i have no fear about buying works now that i have seen and felt the way they ride. if i had the extra cash i would go up to elkas or axis but im gonna stick with the works

works are far from bad, but its companys like pep, axis that sell really good/ expensive shox that make works seem abd

expensive doesnt mean good!! I think people are under the impression that more expensive is better! get the Works!!! Im not saying Works are better at all because they prolly arent and I dont know,,,but when looking for a shock i was looking for the best shock for the best price,,,Works is definately the leader!! unless your looking to beat pro riders at thew nationals,,,,,get the Works!!!

i think that Works only makes dual rates for a 250ex

It depends on your preference. The triple rates are better riding because they have a lower overall spring rate. Duals have more botoming resistance but are rougher at lower speeds. Its your call.

im pretty sure about this that they only make dual rate for 250x cause that is all i could get from works dont unless u have a different 250 than mine or someting
