Elka Rear Shock with Remote Reservoir - DHZ Mini Moto

 

[tomy251]

Elka Shocks are the Top of the Line Mini Moto Shocks!

What Bike is it for?

 

[wogtaz ryder]

I seen on Pm the ELKA shocks that are on ebay (on motoverts etc , and even on the BBR production bike) are made by DNM for ELKA

 

[maslin]

I have a PitsterPro x2 140r and DHZ dpro160 with gpx front forks

 

[grnman]

they are a top shock. ive had 2x. for me they were better than the DNM

 

[maslin]

Yeh mite put the elka shocks on the pitster pro and the dnm on the dhz or sumtin.. I got elka shocks for $220 of ebay brand new.. so i'm britty happy

Not saying they would be a dnm shock with pretty colours .

Just saying its the same deal as the mass produced marzochies , there just not on the same level as the highest quality ELKA shocks , that DO retail for $700+

 

[sean01]

be the same story as daytona being manufactured by zongshen... tighter quality control

 

[pbk]

well i bought one of the ebay elkas and i can tell you now its 10 times better than any dnm out there there is like 30 something compression adjustments and 30 something rebound adjustments and its just an overall smoother riding shock

Yep good point!

I believe that 100%

 

[maslin]

well there is another Elka Rear Shocks on auction if any1 want them?

Elka Rear Shock, PITBIKE PITPRO MOTOVERT CRF70 KLX110 - eBay, Bike Parts, Motorcycle Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 26-Jun-10 21:00:18 AEST)

I haven't yet got to try mine yet but from what pitbikekid is saying there well worth the money

 

[westy465]

99.9% of all of australias top quad MX racers use elka shocks. if they are the real deal then there a sure fire good unit.

 

[fiffty _boytim]

my elka says its made in canada so if dnm is a canadian company then thats cool

 

[maslin]

Yeh mine say made in canada as well

 

[wogtaz ryder]

Again , yes they would be good shocks , but no they wont be as good as the Higher quality ELKA shocks that sell for over $700 (the klx110 elka's etc)

How do you think they can afford to let them all go on ebay for like $200 ?

There just like the marzocchies on Motoverts , there a pretty decent fork , but they cant compare to the HIGHEST quality zocchies that are in a kit with clamps/wheels/brakes etc for klx110/crf50's





But yes im sure they kick the DNM/fastace etc , and are very good for the price there going for on ebay..

BBR are using them on there production bikes so yes they must be alright , but just like all the other parts on the BBR production bike , they are mass produced elsewhere / not at BBR and are different from there HIGHEST quality items..

 

[nicko451]

yeah mine says made in canada too and mines a cheapy!

 

[rumble]

my elka says its made in canada so if dnm is a canadian company then thats cool

Not that that means much these days..... NZ are importing all sorts off crap from China then forwarding it on to Australia labeled as NZ made.
