Please only people with expirence with either or both answer honestly. Also when I do switch to either one should I go with fox air shocks or stick with elka's since i've always been happy with mine.

NOTE please dont say go with pep or axis, I know they are also good shocks buts fox or elka's is what I will buy.

For the money get a t-pin for sure. Ive seen and rode a few roll design setups and was not impressed at all. For the money you are gunna spend the t-pin in way better. They handle like a dream and I havent heard one person complain about them.

I have raced for 6-7 years now and I would not switch from my t-pin.... I had one on y 400ex my 04r and now my 06kicker. love them and I use works new pro g-4 duel line remote rez shocks.
THEY ARE THE BEST I HAVE EVER USED. and I have had elka and custom axis ect.

I think I saw them brand new on ebay for 2600$ with elka sport-racing series shocks.


At this price you also get a new steering stem so it's still cheaper than roll design.

when you compare the 2 , the laeger offers more than the roll setup for the price.

I'd like to see different colors on a 450r. I'd like to have atleast the tops chrome. Upper and lower would rock in chrome but that would cost so much more.

Anyways it'll be a huge improvement over my existing frontend.
