Didn't you used to work at Stasis? Seems odd that you don't have Ohlins.

Default They're in SoCal somewhere. They were great to deal with...

...they sent me a quote, then I said I wanted to order, they said they're out of stock.

so I waited and then they finally got them in stock.

They honored their quote, i ordered, they called me that day to apologize that they missed shipping them out, and they'd leave the next day, and just as they said, they left.

I expect very little from aftermarket parts places, so the phone call notifying me that it wasn't shipping the same day was quite nice.

Definitely thumbs up. And they have some real low prices.

Default awesome writeup.....sounds like another good option to consider.....

sounds like performance is close to what the Vogtlands are (perhaps slightly milder), but much improved over the Konis. The Konis were way too soft imho, but then again...they are a good cruiser setup.

Default Thanks Ryan. Q for you.

I know you haven't tried the Yogtland CO's but based on what you've read would you say the Yogtlands would be a somewhere between the Koni's and the Eiback CO's?
