My problem with the shocks was that with the std parts they cought air through the bottom and they don't move smooth. I switched the bottom parts and the pistons to some high quality ones and it got better. But now i can feel the burrs in the shock body. The body looks like it's not coated like the ones by other manufacturers or at least not well enough machined for a goof feel.
Regarding the spurs is my problem that my lhs doesn't carry those xray spurs or sth thats similar to them. I ended up sanding the plastic spacer between pulley and spur for about 1mm to fit a kimbrough spur. It was much work but it works now :-)
