Forks done?
OK, since I will probably be doing a full suspension job this winter, who has had their XX forks done? I already hace the correct spring in front. What did you do/who did it?
Thanks!
Bob

Re: Forks done?
The same man that all the smart riders turn to come time to rebuild the forks: Dan Kyle!

As usual, he did an incredible job.... between the Ohlins rear shock (that I also got from Dan Kyle; he installed the proper spring in it himself) and the Dan Kyle-overhauled forks, my Blackbird's suspension is nothing short of amazing.

I can not recommend him highly enough.

Re: Forks done?
Can anyone help with the stardard settings for the rear suspension? Do you set the static sag and to what? Or is there any other way?
