for it!

Frank Pons out at Biketek is pretty bloody good. Or you can try Terry Hays,
but he'll sell you gold valves even if you already own an Ohlins SBK fork.

I'd stay away from Biketek. I've heard not so great things about them.

 

Dave "Radar" Cullen runs his own business at Castle Hill specialising in
suspension work. Will not oversell.

Does he ever answer the phone though???

 

You heard bad things about all the suspension specialists in Sydney, there's
heaps of people who are happy, and a few who are not so happy. I've
personally used him and found the work to be great.

exactly, more dodgey storys about him than good....

 

the shop may suck, but Frank Pons is a legend in suspension settingup
from the 80's and early 90's

 

He's screwed up a couple peoples bikes that I know of.

 

Try Nick Dole at Teknik (Penrith).
He does a lot of dirt-bike work (about 60% of the Aust Safari field,
by some accounts), but also track-bike set-ups (R1's etc)

Frank did a great job for me with a 20 years old rear shock, spent lots of
time getting it right as it was a bastard of a job, and charged a reasonable
price, he is a nice bloke,
