Suspension

ImageAt Trail Tricks we offer the following services for suspensions:

BASIC SERVICE: 

The first sign of this is when your suspension fades, perhaps after a few laps of a race and your bike doesn't seem as stable or as controlled as it was. We will take and strip, clean and inspect your shock/fork. We check all high wear parts such as seals, links, etc. and reassemble using only the highest quality oils available. If we find wear or damage to any parts, we make an estimate and call you for approval before any other work is carried out.

REVALVE:

STAGE #1, STAGE #2, STAGE #3

Normally shocks are set up for average riders, but are you a average rider? 

Riders come in all shapes and sizes; some are fast, some are slow. We find out what kind of rider you are, listen to your problems and with our expertise,  Trail Tricks will make your bike handle in the best possible way resulting in faster times, a softer or more enjoyable ride.

Shocks can be shortened to change ride hieght or riding style and to compensate for your weight.

REBUILD:

Oil is the main source of damping for suspension. The oil after time breaks down and the performance is reduced. The friction from heat and pressure is known as shearing.

The first sign of this is when your suspension fades, perhaps after a few laps or rides and your bike doesn't seem as stable or as controlled as it was.

Our major service includes inspection or replacement of high wear parts such as seals, bushings and o'rings. The tolerances of main shock body, fork tubes and springs are checked and finally reassembled using only high quality fluids .

Suspension Work Best Money Spent on My Bikes
written by Wade Wasinger, September 09, 2009
I have had Javier and his company, Trail Tricks do several suspensions for me. My first bike was my 08 530 which had been revalved and was actually worse than stock. Javier listened carefully to what I needed, my riding style and where/what type of terrain I rode and completely transformed a confused handling, poorly suspended bike into the finest suspended, best handling four stroke I have ever owned. Upon selling that bike after last season, the buyer was equally amazed at how well the bike performed.

I can safely say my 09 300 is just as excellent performing. As of last week, we spent some time in the rugged areas around Sargeants, CO and the bike was just a dream. It was always hooked up and on the long rocky singletrack descents (one of which is probably 5 miles long or longer as it snakes down the mountain), I could push the bike as hard as I wanted and the front end would stay up in the stroke, while still handling all of the trail junk with ease. Great, great suspension work
