Like they say : "Ohlins design and manufacture shock absorbers, the rest just copy them! "

Ohlins are not the be all and end all, but they do make good stuff.

Even the stock shock carefully rebuilt can be pretty good, but just doesn't possess many bragging points.

Interestingly Ohlins have opened an R&D facility in Thailand, not far from our place.

Ohlins aren't selling them yet. They've only just started their factory and it won't be for a little while yet. Not 100% sure exactly what their plans are yet but we do have a mole........
