What is involved in getting your suspension modified, tuned and setup when you place an order, call or e-mail us?

1. When you call or e-mail us we will recommend the best shock and fork choice and create a worksheet for your bike model and rider info.
2. Our Expert System looks up and cross references in our database and calculates the spring rates (air shocks where needed) needed for your bikes leverage, travel and rider info.
3. Your custom modification parts and springs are selected from our inventory and added to the customer data sheet.
4. We send quotes for our recommendations along with the customer data sheet with bike specifications, and based on the customers choices generate an invoice for down payment to get the customer in our queue.
5. Our AI generated valving and tuning data is determined by comparing our previous customer data, database and test data for that bike to recommend the best valving and setup data choice, which we tailor to the specific requirements provided and discuss the final choice with the customer.
6. Our office manager will estimate based on our current backlog and work with you as to when your suspension can be shipped to us to begin the work.
7. Follow up emails are incorporated into the work orders to keep any changes up to date on your work sheet, as changes are generally easy to incorporate.
8. Your work is generally completed within the week it is sent to us, any issues found or that might arise will be discussed with the customer and can be corrected if needed.
9. The completed work is shipped with the components set to the starting recommended settings along with a setup sheet for your records.
