Parker,
Glad you took the step to bring back some suspension into your relationship!
Pictures (springs a purple right?) are in order!
Well, there are a few stories going round on that one......... some claim that Wilbers "stole" the technology from Technoflex and set off by themselves...
With no way to verify any claim when I was looking for a replacement shock, I let myself be guided by the companies's websites. Technoflex looked like crap and contained (spelling) mistakes.... Clincher was a nice rebate on the Wilbers that Thurn had running at the time... The White Power (WP) unit was just to expensive. And yes there have been a few sables been rattled when Wilbers started using "WP" abbreviation as well....
Technoflex since moved under new management and my bike shop (that builds racing bikes as well) sell Technoflex. In my book that is a good endorsement!
John (the shop owner) will never sell crap!
