Maintenance Meet-Up...May Edition

Real Fast Travis · 04-22-2010, 03:50 PM

Hey, hey....it's that time !

Due to popular request, I will be have another suspension rebound and sag set.

Like the last one, this will be a great opportuntity for anyone to either learn about/how to maintian their rides, or give those who do not have it, a place with the tools to do it.

This meet-up will be geared around suspension set-up. Basic stuff like sag, rebound, compression and ride height adjustments. These will be performed by a professional mechanic at a shop.
He has agreed to offer this service to us for the LOW price of $20.00. This is a great deal!

Also, this is a shop, so if any last minute supplies are needed, they should be available to purchase.

Please make sure your forks and rear shock are free of any caked on dirt so it is easier to adjust.

Just like before, even if you aren't doing any work, still come out to swap war stories! Good times!

So let me know if you want to get in on the $20.00 set-up, so I can keep a list, just to make sure we don't get too many bikes.

Anyhow, this is set for May 30th, and will be in Puyallup.

Location is 11203 Benston Dr. E. STE # 180

Time: 09:00 A.M.

First come, first served. Get there early to get a spot, last time we had 60+ bikes! But everyone got their work done.

By the way, suspension set-up isn't just for track riders, everyone can benifit from a well set-up bike!

Everyone that got in on this last time, had nothing but great things to say, like their bike felt like a new bike! So, don't miss out this time!

Can't wait to see you there!

Travis

And yes, they set your bike for you.

Reading comprehension is your friend!

BobbyBlackFinger · 04-22-2010, 07:22 PM

I'm gonna try to make it. Travis I think it is awesome you set this up for everyone. It's really generous of you. I realize you don't have to do these so I will try to show up and help out to make sure they continue. I'm not a bike mechanic so it's nice to have someone help me out.
