What shock do you have? I think it is a Noleen. Being stateside, I only know of J6Noleen shock service in California. The charge some $100 for a rebuild, not including damaged parts. They may sell parts if you know of a rebuilder in your country.

ODS shocks have simple o-rings for rebuld.

You might also want to consider switching to a Risse Genesis. It is $198 US and it is a supremely plush and infinitely adjustable choice.

Another place to get your Noleen repaired and rebuilt is http://www.shockspital.com/ reasonable prices and excellent work.

your local bike shop might be able to suggest someone who can help,the principle is pretty simple and hopefully the parts are universal(seals etc).
I apreciate you are new,but can you please fill out a couple of details in your profile,and to prevent your email getting snagged hide it....(an option in your profile)A k2 or proflex specific sig line also helps us to quicky determine real members from bogus ones.
