Hey im thinking of getting a set of canandale moto shocks for my 400ex. also are they ZPS? im pretty sure they are

also im going to get them revalved and they already have the bushing.



if they arent ZPS

could I possibly get them to have ZPS and make it tripple rate instead of dual?

Keep in mind that the Moto shocks are long travel and will not work with standard travel arms.

cannondale moto shocks do come standard as a zero preload system. I am sending my cannondale moto shocks off soon to get them zps. It makes a huge difference i guess.

They should work ok with LT arms, not perfect but ok. They aren't a true self sagging shock but they can be converted.

are they worth it or should i just go with TCS standerd

cuz if I do buy these ohlins im going to send them out to be rebuilt and make them like new again, bbut they dont have the same stroke which toggels me

I'd take the Ohlins over the TCS anyday.

UH OH.....lol...you calling Papa Fro out? I wouldn't get the Ohlins for the 400. Why buy an aftermarket shock that will just be "ok"???

if i bought the ohlin shocks I would have to get them sent out and make them put on a true ZPS and make it into a tripple rate and set it for my weight how much would that come out to? oh and made for an EX not a dale

could i even get it changed to make the shock for an EX isntead of a dale?

Sorry, I meant they do not come as zps on standard cannondale moto. I am sending mine off to the quad shop in a couple of weeks to get them zps'd and revalved for the upcoming year.

His answer flew right over your head...:o He's referring to what brand shock he would rather use...;)
