Keep your rides smooth and safe by being proactive about professionally servicing your fork and shock. Suspension service is similar to keeping the oil changed in your motor vehicle. Naturally, the more frequently you take care of this vital maintenance, the better your fork and shock will perform.

Don’t wait until you notice a lot of grit, grime and other build up around your seals to get your suspension serviced. And certainly don’t wait ‘til it feels like you’re riding a jackhammer.

In addition to keeping your suspension running like new, timely maintenance will save you hundreds of dollars in the long run, as fresh oil and seals prevent the bushings from wearing into the stanchions. Did you know that forks cost up to $1,000 to replace, and that stanchions alone can cost $500?

Clearly, regular service is your first line of defense in protecting your investment. Let our highly knowledgable suspension service technicians — Nancy Barragan and Joel Rocha — take great care of your fork(s) and shock(s). With 28 years of experience between the two of them (Nancy with 11 and Joel with 17), these experts will keep your suspension running as good as new … perhaps even better! Who doesn’t love that sweet, buttery feel?
