Ohlin shocks for the skis

[Scooby]

I would like to know your opinion as to the Ohlin adjustable ski shocks.

I am not a ditch banger but would like an adjustable shock on the skis. My main complaint is the handle bars vibrate to much for my liking when riding long distances with studder bumps on other wise smooth trails.

I have had the Ohlins on from day one and the front works well with them. Bumps are never a problem and I have never had a vibration problem. They don't cure all the problems of the Pro action when installed in the rear though. Although the Ohlin is a much better shock, it can not overcome the deficiencies of the rear skid.
So yes get them for the front.

I agree....great shocks on the front...but in that skid its hard to overcome the geometry problems...

The front shocks are definitely an improvement. More supple, better adjustment, better handling. I also have the rears, big improvement, but could be better. I am going to try to revalve them this summer because I have the Ohlins 36prc's on my Viper and they work much better. It is hard to believe it is the same skid.

Misfit, I installed the M10 2 weeks ago, but something was missing, I installed the Ohlins on the front. Wow, what a difference. It used to be when going around a tight corner, and you see that 2 foot deep mogul and cringe, not any more, it just goes right over, also very little if any ski lift. How about 60 down a very moguled trail, the front end used to teeter totter back in forth, it was hard to hold on, now I run 90+ over the same bad trail. What a rush.
