Suspension Services



Did you know Mountain Road Cycles service Fox and Marzocchi suspension forks and rear shocks in house? Common problems and wear include, changing the oil, seals leaking and not holding proper air pressure. We are an authorized Fox and Marzocchi dealer. We can also send out your Rock Shox and Manitou to service centers. Speeking of taking a rear shock off to service we also will rebuild any full suspension frame. Many times pivots and bearing wear out and need to be replaced. These are not easy jobs and require knowledge on frame and suspension design. We can get any parts from Kona, Giant, Felt, Yeti and Moots. If you have another brand feel free to get the parts from an authorized dealer and bring them in for us to overhaul. (we can help you figure out what parts you need. These repairs usally take longer so plan for a 1-2 week turn around. Let us help you get the most out of your bike!!
That brings us to the next point. Tuning suspension. Modern shocks have a wide range of adjustment. We can tune the suspension to you body and ridding style. Do you know what Sag, preload, rebound, damping, platform valve, compression, instant center, lockout,and inertia valving are??? Stay tuned for the next post and we will start explaining!
