CO tuner rec's

[bluespark]

I need some serious work on my '11 ec 300e suspension. I have the ohlins/marizochi set up, and it is feeling pretty harsh on these front range rocky rooty trails.
I have heard some recommendations of some suspension shops, but I am curious if anyone knows of a shop that specializes in our particular setup?

I hear Dave at STM Suspension in FT Collins, CO has a pretty good handle on the Zokes, Also Les at LTR in Washington knows them well

bluespark I hear you. We ride southern and central Colorado, mostly roots and rocks where a purely smooth singletrack is unheard of. Had Les fix up my 07 EC300 (Marz/Ohlins) this winter and he is spot on. The terrain I specified for Les was 100% roots and rocks. About 2 wk turnaround and very good pricing for the revalve/service/seals/bleeders/lowering 1 inch. Obviously I'm not motocrossing it, but July 4 we rode over 60 miles in the southern San Juans and July 6 we rode over 40 of mostly very harsh creekbottoms north of South Fork. NO WAY could I ride that many miles and not be sore except for Les doing his magic. I heard about him here on GGRider and am just another super satisfied customer.

Also locally keep hearing about a guy in Durango named Adam Krefting who supposedly has some trickery he works that makes people start talking exitedly when you mention his name.

Thanks guys, I spoke to Dave at STM today and I am going to try to get my suspension to him here in a few weeks. It sounds like he knows our set up well, and I don't have to deal with shipping parts.
I might have to head up to the Smooth single track in Eagle county next weekend and give my back a rest.

Thumperflipper, I was just curious what you paid for all the work you had done, just to see how close it comes to the quote I got today. I will probably need all the same work, minus the lowering.
You can PM me if you like.

I am extremely pleased with my suspension after Drew @ WER went through my 45 Zokes and 888 Ohlins. Easily the best money I have spent. Just my $.02
WER Website He is out east, but his turnaround time was second to none!

Les at LTR has done my forks and shock on my 06-300 and they worked excellent. Great service,fast turnaround,super helpful. He also set up my KYB SSS forks when I did the swap. Pure magic,I swear I'll get another ten years of life out of my worn out body with this plush setup.

Jim Cook (of Smackover fame) is a huge fan of Drew's work also

Hi, I would strongly recommend Enduro Spec out of Parker Colorado. I live in Colorado and can tell you that Warren Healy, the owner of Enduro Spec can get you super dialed in. I ride a 13' GG 300Race and he performed magic on my suspension. I felt the stock the suspension, though under sprung for my weight, was adequate valving wise for trail riding. Prior year forks suffered from mid-stroke harshness that made for a rough ride. Warren was able to re-spring and revalve my suspension to handle a wide variety of terrain. He also installed the speed sensitive valving kit(huck valve) to enable the fork to soak up the small roots and rocks, then blow into a whoop section without fear of collapsing the front fork. This system is spectacular to say the least.
I would strongly recommend calling him before you do anything else!
