Definitely a hijack... I ride with a few guys out of St. Louis that belong to the MTRA. I don't know this guy well, buy there is a guy, Layton, who runs a little suspension service out of his house. At least one friend recommended Layton.Lunchman wrote:Not to hijack a thread (Troy please don't ban me again, something about being referred to as a previous member..) but can I ask where sent your suspension off to and some detail on what exactly you are having done?troy wrote:I sent my 500 EXC suspension off to be rebuilt today. Was super easy to remove the forks and shock.
Layton's Suspension Service

I removed the forks and shock and shipped UPS to him. He is replacing the springs all around with progressive springs designed for my riding weight, which with gear and tools and such is probably close to 230 lbs for a serious trail ride. The bike was set up for Stu's perhaps 140 lbs so way under-sprung for me. Of course the rebuild means new oil, nitrogen recharge for the shock, I assume new seals, etc.
