Default Re: ohlins or what? plz help

I don't think so. Maybe PDQ are down there?
Maxton is over west near liverpool, I am in Yorkshire. Few other places do it but it is not common work because there is no need to do it for power rangers.

You could post your forks if you were prepared to remove them and refit.

A lot of the US tuners don't rate Ohlins... For me it's been great, also mine is now pretty old (it looks awful after too many scottish winters) but it's never needed any real surgery, just routine servicing year on year and it keeps going. High performance but not highly strung.

Think I'd go Nitron now maybe. Not sure what's good these days. Ohlins is simple to work with and there's plenty of people who'll tune and service them.
