Shocks - rebuild or replace?

<< < (2/6) > >>

I think, from the looks of things, the rebuild kits are for newer models than I have.  A new set of Ikon shocks are just over £300... ouch...

Trigger:
Try ABE in Greenwich for a rebuild. If it is only seals and set up they charge about £100 but, the price does go up if new springs are needed.

I think my last 3  sets (several bikes, they lasted well)  were from Custom fastners in Newtown, somewhere in the region of £50 - £60 a set oxon and yss brand, never heard of either but they handled pretty well as far as I could assess such things and were better than some I have tried, though I have not tried out the best types and am not the fastest rider.
