Suspension Fork servicing

Having your suspension forks and rear shock serviced is an essential part of looking after your bike.
We recommend a basic service (includes new seals and oil change) approximately every 6 months and at least once a year. This is also mandatory for your warranty.
Please don’t leave having your forks serviced untill you notice something wrong with them. If you do, it will certainly become a repair situation. You really don’t want to have that happen - it’s expensive!
We currently service Rock Shox and Fox forks and rear shocks, and we carry a comprehensive selection of spares, so we can get your bike up and running as soon as possible.
We’ll also do our best to help with other makes although this can take a bit longer...
