Title: twin front shocks
Post by: chuggaman on September 04, 2005, 21:41:00

after a few days riding on these

i can highly reccomend the modification


really improves handling to get less body roll

downside

a bit more bouncy

rears are on the list

the pic shows no extra shock

but now has 2x procomp es9000

ok guys

they are scorpion turrets  minus 2 inches with twin shock mounts

2 x procomp es 9000 plus 2 shocks

the bottom bracket bolts onto the radius arm

and thats not blood honest its my brothers fancy anti corrosion wax,thats all over my drive too

they are really easy to fit with 2 people(to get the turret rings in

the inner wings require a small bash with a hammer at a certain point
