Hagon Nitro's going on eBay

I have a pair of Hagon Nitro's for sale, blue anodised & 310mm long which is 5mm shorter than standard, set for 120kg riding weight, 2yrs old & good condition, I thought around £150 if anyone interested they'l be going on eBay in early new year so you get first chance. Due to cost of shipping outside UK I am guessing it will be Brits only. You can probably see them if you look at my bike in photo gallery.

Replacing with Maxton shocks. Just had the front fork internals replaced with Maxton units & so impressed I've decided to go with the rears to mach. I don't expect to notice the same improvement over the Hagons as I did over stock on the front but I do expect some noticeable improvement.

Pease tell us all about the Maxton springs and shocks.

I will when I get the rears made up & fitted, for now I can only speak of the front forks, they are a vast improvement on the stock units. The complete internals have been replaced-springs, canisters & re-valved. The first set up would bottom out so they supplied uprated springs & longer spacers, Hammer & Tongs who fitted them changed the air gap to 120mm& the preload is set to MAX - 8 clicks, it does not bottom now & the feel in the bends is a lot firmer, it no longer feels that it wants to run wide. Without a lot of testing, to date I am very pleased, I cant wait for some decent weather to try it out properly. After just testing out for bottoming on test run, the front locked out & I threw the bike up the road, no damage done but I don't know how I got away with it.The roads were treacherous on a very wet December morning. I had of course forgotten that when the front wheel has been removed the brake is a lot more aggressive & it turns out that the road I was on is well used by heavy goods & car strippers, hence often sprayed with Diesel. However that is nothing to do with the suspension & as I said the front now feels so good that I have decided to go with the Maxton rear shocks, I am assured that I will notice an improvement but not I think as much as the front end, the Hagons are a very good unit & the improvement if any will be more difficult to detect but I will report on them when fitted.
