Ohlins Shocks

[TwentyBelow131]

How do Ohlins shocks compare with works and elka. Because Im looking at a pair right now for my ex. And does anyone know how there customer service is.

which ohlin model are you looking at?

[TwentyBelow131]

They are fully rebuildable single rate with adjustable preload. But I was thinking if I could get them for cheap then I could have them converted into dual or triple rate. These will just be used for recretional and trail riding.

ohlins arent a bad shock, especially if you can get them cheap. one of the best sets of shocks ive ever riden was done up by pro action. id say god for it if it can fall well below buying a set of the more common brand name shocks.

Pappy,
What size tires you have on there? I got a set of hipers that came with 23" fronts and I want to go with a 20" in the rear.

Sorry for ambushing your thread....

Ohlins are good shocks when setup correctly. They also have a hole new valving system out on their new stuff and are making much easier to set them up for the customer when they buy them new instead of buying an off the shelf set and having to get them redone.:)
