Hi from new member
« on: July 07, 2007, 08:11:32 am »
Hi to all. Just joined up after many months browsing this excellent forum.Been riding for many years on numerous and varied bikes,got my first proflex an xpx about 97 and have had one ever since.Recently rebuilt my 4000 which was retired 2 years ago when the nr4 gave up the ghost.Managed to buy an x fusion air shock off ebay brand new for the ridiculous sum of £20 after reading on here of another member doing similar,hoping for a first outing on it tomorrow,will post pics if I can work out how

How are you getting on with the x fusion shock,are you happy with it? Only been out a few times on mine,seems quite good so far,rebound adjuster seems to do very little and air pressure drops a bit each ride,is this normal?

ive found my shock to be fine, no air leaks and the rebound adjuster whilst no being overly spectacular does its job ok.

seeing as you got your shock from onzaboy on ebay, try contacting him as im sure the shop is  www.supercycles.co.uk and they may honour the warranty.  got to be worth a try.
