I like Elka, But to make any shock come alive have them rebuilt by Derisi Racing. He does awesome Work

Don't be scared to try to get them to lower the price, I bought my axis for $1325 then my friend bought them from the same place a week later for $1175:grr:

Depends who you ask.


We have ridden and owned most of the shocks out there, with the exception of the new companies starting out, and PEP without a doubt is the best out of the box shocks you can buy.

I have rode many quads with After market suspension and it helped alot. I had my Tripple Rates Rebuilt by derisi and that helped 100%. I have rode a few other quads that had rebuilt shocks by other companies and they were alot better then out of the box but I still like the Derisi Racing ones.
