The last one out the workshop for a while

A quick turn around for this Bronson before a trip to alps this week

A full service and some fresh brake pads to tackle the gnarly dissents of Italy

Still got some space available for July before I’m off for the summer adventures in Africa so get booking before they are gone

A super nice bronson C in for a full service and all new frame bearings along with new jockey wheels and some suspension adjustment with added tokens
Back and ready to hit the wet UK tails on this so called summer 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

An amazing day on Monday learning all the in and outs of the suspension platforms and their serviceability as well as adjustability to be able to help you all with getting a more custom and specific suspension feel to your personal preferences.

A little compilation of jobs in the workshop the last few weeks
- lever rebuild and service
- scout getting some fresh goodies
- bottom bracket getting a serious clean and re grease after being left in a bog 🤮🤮 re fitted with some ptfe tape style
- dropper post getting a serious over due service, opened it to find it full of water
- A cracked awaiting repair quote
- A mangled derailed getting some manipulation to straighten it up

Not such a big job this one but an awesome bike to work on none the less
E-Ransom having some suspension work
A new X2 replaced under warranty and set up here in the workshop
Some fresh oil and foam rings in the 38s
And a general service and clean
Safe to say one very happy customer

So I have had a lot more suspension coming in for servicing recently so thought it would be a good idea to share some light on the topic.

Suspension needs to be well maintained to optimise performance and prolong the life of the fork or shock.

For they recommend a lower leg service on the fork and air can service for the shock every 50hours, changing the bath oil and dust and wiper seals.

For they recommended every 125hours which is a rather long time and a few technicians prefer to perform these much before that time.

In the UK with the notorious wet and muddy conditions, it very important to keep your moving parts on the bikes clean and lubricated properly

If you guys have any questions you would like to know regarding servicing for bikes or suspension feel free to drop me a message or give me a call.
