    Check this manual out for a good run thru of the how and why of suspension setup. Even tho it is for Elka's the principles are the same for all suspension.

    Typically you want softer compression for Trail and harder for MX but there is a happy balance that is unique for your ride style, your skill level, your weight, the track conditions etc. So you will want to know how to do it yourself and bring the correct tools with you to the track for adjustments as required.

    We charge $99.99 for the complete setup, also includes unlimited setup tech support, questions on changing setups, how, why etc...

    We would only need the bike for a few days tops.
