Just before we came away to rainy N Wales I took the 400 super four for test and as I wheeled it in one of the rear Showa shocks decided to drop all its oil on the floor. Now these don’t crop up second hand very often, new ones are about £600 each so that left having a rebuild or buying something different. Time seen a factor I plumped for buying others, and took a risk on a pair of cheap Chinese shock off EBay . I have now done about 200mls on them around wet Wales and both of us think they ride nicer than the original Showas with these been a bit stiffer which is what we wanted. If they were to only last 12 months I would be quite happy with them. Cost a ridiculous £55 a pair. Hopefully the weather will be better over the next few days .
