Was Santo just replacing the seals and oil, or is he working on a pro-millenium valve for the Elkas? I have lost weight and I need my Elkas revalved, but if Santo has a new valve for them, I would much rather have him do it.

Wingnut, Do you have the rear pro millenium rebuild? If so how do you like it and can you give me anymore info about it? Thanks alot.

I love it! It seems to be far better than the Elka fronts I have. I was going to get DeRisi's front shocks, but at that time he had just quit making his $700 shocks and was about to begin making his $800-$1200 shocks. That was a bit too much for me. Now, I wish I had saved up an extra $300 for the DeRisi compression adjustable shocks.

Yeah that would be Great if Mark Baldwin or Santo Derisi could setup the Elka`s. I`m sure they would be just as good as a set of PEP`s or the Derisi`s. I`m hoping mine are setup fine for now, but when I go to get a rebuild, if Mark or Santo would have something for the Elka`s I would do it too.
