I anxiously await someone to purchase the WP shock and give a real world review.

The only problem is, 90% of the mini population isn't qualified to give a proper suspension review and wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a WP, Quantum and Ohlins given that most minis don't have good suspension geometry (ZB being the worst) and aren't set up correctly anyway.

I'll stick with my low rent Ohlins were replacement parts will be available 5 years from now and won't take an act of Congress to acquire them. Different spring rates are available for the Ohlins as well.

But for the "most expensive must be the best" crew, have at it!

Hey do you see a WP or Quantum shock on any of my bikes? So im not always buying the best. Sometimes some parts just make more sense.

Plus im not sure if i had a quantum or WP shock on any of my rides if it would really allow me to ride any faster. Ohlins is by far the best buy IMO. Oh other then the AC obviously.

Brad i didnt say you bought the most expensive,I said you bought "The best"Which personally imo is the Ohlins............

rjpracing · 09-18-2009, 03:43 PM
