I have a chance to get some brand new Ohlins front shocks at a good discount.

Anyone got any opinions on them? I would be using them for MX.

Thanks

I have Ohlins on the front of my R, and am pleased with them. They came on it when I bought it, so I can't compare them to stockers. A guy I know just got a new set put on his R, and they are sweet! They soak up jumps alot better than mine. They're good shocks, but I wouldn't pay the price for them again.

I have run a ridden on a pair of these shocks aand did not like them. They may have not been set up right but they were very harsh, they handled the big jumps great but the smaller stuff was like a lumber wagon. they were single rate so that mite have something to do with it. I ended ip with works triple rate on the front and axis on the rear.As soon as i have the money i am going to sell the works and put axis on the front to.
