barfy Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I've been talking to Andy at Ohlins about rebuilding my RTL shock. He mentioned about making a new shock, but it would mean having to make a custom part for the bottom mount. It wouldn't be cost effective to make a custom part in a quantity of less than five. I'm not going to get five made then sell them, but if there is a market for five then Andy might be encouraged to make the part. The cost would be in the region of £400 for a custom made shock. So if you are seriously interested in an Ohlins shock for the RTL then PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geniejlg Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Hello Barfy, Only just come across this post but you could add me to the list if it's work in progress. This is when a 3d printer would come in really handy. Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem to rebuild the old shock or make a new (Ohlins) see my bike : (the 89' with pink shelter) http://www.onlytrial.com/1/from_1985_to_90_120288.html Kcnarf.

shedracer Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Joe, 4stroke and sharvie1, I'll speak to my brother when I see him, he organised the last lot.

jj65 Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Pm sent to Joe, 4stroke and sharvie1 ref Ohlins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj65 Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Joe, your pm box is full. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj65 Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) I can't send you any info Joe. You need to clear your box pm out. Ohlins shocks were custom built for weight, gold body, yellow Spring. No remote reservoir. Bottom mounting bracket has to be custom made. Speak to Andy with your requirements.
