Incredible service
I just wanted to say thanks to Brian. Dropped the bike off Sunday afternoon, it was ready Tuesday morning. He even put off his dinner to get it dialed in for me.

It's nice to know that we have a local this committed to service. I can hardly wait for the chance to ride the bike.

Just an update here, I finally got the bike out for a ride, and although I didn't get to test the cornering too much (damn gravel), the bike rides soooo much better. I can't believe I waited so long to get this done. The ride is smoother, the brake dive is gone, and the road feel is awesome. I can't wait for the back roads to clear up some more so I can really work the suspension. I just want to say thanks again Brian.

I want incredible service too! And for my bike to handle even better, but I'm sofa-king confused!!!

It's elementary son. This is what happens when a rider discovers that quality suspension work is more important than $$ spent on that loud exhaust.

Interesting comment from the King of loud exhausts.

Dammit!!!
It appears that I am in fact, a dumbass.

Didn't notice the section.

I've even been researching FluidSuspension Science. If I take my bike there will I redeem myself???

New springs in the forks and on the shock. New valves in the forks and shock. Initial setup, and fine tuning (still have to do after I put a few miles on it).

Great to hear of the outstanding suspension service for your bike. Just wait to realize how stoked you're going to be with it after the temperature outside & the riding picks up.

Sounds to me like $$ well spent (along with silencers if your bikes were also purchased with loud exhaust systems. )

I'm definitely in the "why didn't I do this the day after I bought my bike" camp. Having my suspension set up will be the first thing I do when I get my next bike.
