January 6, 200521 yr Buying a pair of rear shocks for my TY175, I don't want to spend the earth on a pair but in the same breath I want a decent pair. NJB Expert Shocks seem to fit the bill Edited January 6, 200521 yr by Marky G
January 6, 200521 yr Mark, I bought some betor gas /oil shocks from sammy miller -they fit the springs according to your weight etc, very pleased with them so far and the have adjustment for pre-load. Andy
January 6, 200521 yr Author How much are the Falcons RS ? (whoc sells them?) same for go's for the BETOR's?
January 6, 200521 yr Author ordered a set from Sammy Millers, gone for the stronger spring option (just incase Bikespace has a go on it ;-)
January 6, 200521 yr Author Any chance of using it on the 27th Feb?Novogar? Yeah, no problem mate............I'll fit some springs off a Scania when you borrow it or I'll see if I can borrow a set of Falcons off RS Edited January 6, 200521 yr by Marky G
January 6, 200521 yr Author As with anything you pay your money and take your choice............and if you want to fit badly made throw away shocks, to save
January 7, 200521 yr From what I saw last year the sections are just right, not Shock snapping stuff anyway's (sod's law I'll be eating my words on the 13th Feb ) Just to throw a spanner in the works I put a hefty bend in the rod of one of the Falcons on my Ossa at the Torridge round in 03 - some fairly juicy rocks in that round. Bootle and the Hillsborough round have some fair rocks in too, although at Bootle, it is more likely that if a rod is going to get bent it will be crossing the moors if you're motoring a bit, rather than in a section. I haven't bought any Falcon trials shocks for a while, but last year I bought a pair for a Bultaco Pursang. These cost
January 16, 200521 yr Well there is an alternative BPS competition shocks. We've develped our shocks over the past 2 years in both the French and Spanish championship. We have a soft damping and a new progressive spring ideal for trials, the rest is down to modern tech - mountings CNC 'd fine thread adjustment..... Shocks made today for classic bikes, our new model covers the TLR 250. Sizes from 340mm to 410mm (TLR 250) 2 spring rates...... Our shocks have been made with mdern twinshock trials in mind...... Comming soon MX models........ PICT0401_3_
