CRM 250 shock wanted
Permalink  

Anyone have a CRM250 shock absorber I can buy?

Mine is a Mk1, don't know if the Mk2/3/AR ones are the same, or if it is rebuildable?

Mine does this

I bounced up Simms and wallowed up Tipley today and it makes me slightly sea sick, and the back wheel wanders as it unweights itself while the back end wanders up and down after bumps.

Give Jamie a shout at Bike works Exeter.
He will know if rebuildable, probably only wants seals and a re-gas.

Turns out the shock had merely disassembled itself, and the damping appears fine. The sleeve has broken but I should be able to get one good shock by using the undamaged parts from my spare which does have no damping.  An awful lot cheaper than reconditioning. Result!

If the one from the CR250 is a similar fitment I've got one you can have for the price of picking it up.  Its pretty tatty, but maybe use as a spare?

Thanks Dave, but I think the CR 250 shock may be a tad stiff for my style of riding.

John Tremlett of Asburton only charged me £24 to make one good shock out of the two. Result!
Off out now to test it over the drainage channels (jumps) on Johnny Cann's Walk
