Suspension specialists in Auckland?

**Fishy** · 28th March 2006, 09:08

Does anyone know of any bike suspension specialists in Auckland?

I have set mine up through trial and error, and have got it feeling a lot better than how it was when I bought it but am interested in knowing what a professional would recommend.

I heard that there is a guy who operates from home in Pokeno and is supposed to be quite good, does anyone know who he is or contact details?

Cheers

there's a few around.
I'm looking into it myself. I'm going to have a go and see what I can do, but I'm keeping the specialists in the back of my mind. You've got Ray Clee in Henderson (I think), Shaun Harris (New Plymouth?), Robert Taylor (Taranaki), that dude in Cycletreads on the shore.. there's a few..

If you've got it fairly well off to you (and remember, you're riding the bike, not these guys, but another opinion never hurts), the next step is the big bucks for things like new rear shock and fork internals..
