I've installed a set of Durablue spacers front and rear. Does anyone know if this is a good idea? I ride alot of fast paced trails and have just gotten into riding mx. any info greatly appreciated

Its been an excellent improvment for me. I have 1" offset front wheels instead of spacers for the front. I don't get a lot of high air and some say they are not good if you get lots of air. For a less expensive handleing upgrade its the best thing going IMO.

I just today got some good ride time on my Warrior after adding DuarBlue front spacers and an extended DuraBlue rear axle. The improvment in handling, bump absorbtion, and just over all stability is nothing short of remarkable. IMHO. I ride mostly wood trails with lots of rocks and hill climbing. I can't comment on the long term affects on the front end. Will it wear out bearings sooner, will I replace ball joints sooner?? At this point I don't care its damn worth it.
