    derisi shock rebuilds

    hey guys got a question. how long did it take when you sent your 450r shocks to derisi to get a rebuild? i sent my off a while ago and haven't got them back yet. i am hoping to get a phone call from him this week. just wondering? also what adjustments did you have to make to dial them in. i know all will be different, but looking for any ideas to see if any are the same. thanks

    my buddy sent his shocks to derisi... i think he got them back like 2 weeks from the day he sent them... santo has good turn around time... when he got them they were valved to light and he would bottom out... he sent them back, derisi fixed the problem and then next day aired them back....

    i sent mine out about 4 weeks ago and i e-mailed him last week and he said they would be done that week and i still haven't got them. i don't want to keep calling him because the more he is on the phone the less time he has to work. i hope i will get them next week. thanks

    Hey,
    Sorry for the delay on everything i have just been so busy lately with all the races starting up and everyone needing their suspension. I have been working 18 hour days trying to get everything done so everyone can go racing. I am the one that does every shock that goes out so i can make sure everything is done right but doing things that way sometimes makes for a longer turnaround time. I hope everyone understands and please call or email me if you have any questions.
    Later,

    That's awesome Santo, keep up the great work, I only hear good things about you. You'll probably be hearing from me sometime this spring or early summer when I decide to do something with my stock shocks.

    hey santo, sounds great. i can't wait to get them. i wasn't dogging your name, i was just wondering what your normal turn around time was. i have only heard good things about you and i'm sure the shocks will be top notch when i get them. can't wait. also do you have any of the ball joint covers in shock. if you do i might order a set when you call me. will they fit janssen arms? thanks

    dont feel bad about calling him, i do all the time he has a fancy dancy headset so he can work and chat, ofcourse when i tell him dirty jokes it could slow down your service time

    hey jal232 i like them. i race both mx and xc so i wanted some arms that would work on both. so far they working great. i run 4+1 offset in the woods and 3+2 offset on the mx tracks. i don't know my width. the only thing i don't like are the heim joints. i wish they were normal ball joints. i am affraid when mud and water get in the heims they will want to stiffen up. hasn't happen yet but i have read of a lot of people saying this. thanks
