What kind of shocks work good for haresramble racing or gncc racing that are still affordable but good. and does any one have some shocks for sale, if so then you might tell me what they are and how much you might take for them.

find some super cheap works shocks w/ rezzies on ebay...the get them & send them & your rear shock to get revalved for your weight & riding specifications & everything will work perfect. I recommend santo derisi. I just had him do my shocks & they are amazing now

Works shocks will work fine in my opinion. Axis and pep are better shocks, but it usually depends on how much cash you want to spend.

nope. No probelems. Just whatever you get, make sure you get them with Rezzies......;) I see the Works for Sale in the For Sale Section all the time, you should go check it out!!

I would go with the Works. I think new they are around $500, but I'm sure C&D would be cheaper. If not, find a used set and send them to Santo!

if you can afford it go with elka. they are a ton better than works. definately cost more but worth every penny. if you are looking for a used set i think GNCCer might still be selling his

who has the shocks? do you know how much he would want for them? you might have this person post what he has, or tell me a little more about the shocks, if he hasnt already in the for sale section that is. you might have him pm me if he wants to sell them. you might also relay a message to me from him if he's not an ex riders member.

i found some shocks on ebay they are fox shocks with rezzies. does any one know any thing about them? the guy says they have 8 different preload settings on them. not too sure about them but i could be wrong though. they are currently $117.50, is this a good deal.
