[QUOTE="Lorin, post: 1391593, member: 16153"] Having had suspension done on multiple bikes by multiple individuals, I find the most important aspect is the relationship and understanding between the customer and the tuner. Hard to do over the phone and across state lines, especially when down time and shipping are factored in. Having tried: heavy springs\light valving, medium spring\valving and light springs \ heavier valving, as well as differing types of pistons (stock, race tech, and Mx-tech), I have decided that there are truly many different ways to get to a similar place. Having someone local that you ride with (or can watch you ride) seems to be the more important factor to me anymore. Many tuners have a "lean" toward mx or enduro, etc., and that may influence their ideas as to what they think you need (as compared to what you asked for). My recent bike has Race tech valves, light springing, and moderate stack, which works pretty well for the majority of my riding. I no longer feel the need to eek out the last 5-10% of my suspension and am content with where it is at. I may occasionally try a different shim, etc., but like the ease of seeing where the differences come from. [/QUOTE]
