    I bought a pair of these because they were the cheapest universal rear shocks on ebay. Someone pointed out to me that the gas reservoir is completely fake and there is nothing inside the shock at all. I've done 11.000 miles on them so far and plenty of hard off road riding along the green lanes of Kent, Sussex, Surrey, and Hampshire, and they havent blown up yet. I would say for £35 they have been adequate.

    The problem with these is, you don't get any realistic data, e.g. a spring rate, or at least for what weights they are made. Sometimes they give the max. load, but then they do not write if it is for a pair or for one.

      @hodaka1000 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I installed 14mm bushing I used a vice with a jaw guard on one side made from aluminium angle to protect the 14mm metal bushing and used the 14mm metal bushing smeared with red rubber grease to push or press out the original factory 12mm metal bushings while installing the 14mm metal bushing at the same time I used a socket on the side the 12mm bushing come out for clearance and once they were nearly out had to use a couple of washers to increase the clearance because the socket wasn't quite deep enough I used a socket that fitted neatly against the rubber part of the bushing to hold the rubber in place while allowing the 12mm metal bushing to move into the centre of the socket You could cut a piece of metal tubing to size instead of using the socket and washers or you could use a deeper socket than I had on hand

    • @hodaka1000
      @hodaka1000 3 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @chuckr5929
    @chuckr5929 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just bought these for my Bike and will be installing them this weekend. So far they look good and by putting my weight on them seem a little stiff, I will update y'all when I get some road time on them. I recommend checking the pressure on the shocks when they arrive to make sure you aren't low.

    • @chuckr5929
      @chuckr5929 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Put them on just had to use the different insert, they fit well, and after 150 miles of riding today I had no issues and they were softer then the rough OEM shocks. I still need to mess around with the preload a little but it is close. Also when I checked the shock pressure they only had 20 psi, I put compressed in in them up to 70ps.(Our own air in the environment is mostly nitrogen anyway, so thats why I used it)
