Nitron all day long.

you tell them what your weight is, what kind of riding you do and they set it up for you. when it needs a service then its just a quick phone call to Nitron, send them the shock, pay your money and they send it back, if you think the valving need changed come service time then you tell them what problems you are having they then stick it on the dyno and have a look and play with shim stack. with them being a UK based company you get the Nitron servicing the shock, unlike some others where you have to rely on them being knowledgable enough to know what they are doing. Nitron also keep every single spare part is stock. if you decide later that you want to upgrade to say a 3 clicker then you just send them the shock come service time and they will fit the upgrade parts.

a race shock should be serviced between 6-10k depending on how hard a use they get.

i have 30k on mine and it still looks brand new.
