like kheft said, they are 100x better than stock, but then elkas, pep, custom axis are 100x better than works.

If works are setup properly they are just as good as everything else. just people dont set them up right and get them valved right. You can tell them to valve them different like hard even though you tell em your weight ect. and you can get them and they'll be reallly. good.

I disagree, I have seen many many many people and heard them say they went from works to elka's or even PEP, and they had there works setup correctly as well, they rode MX.. There was one guy on BHQ a well known guy, he said his works shocks were awful, he hated them.. Theres a reason why Works are only 3-4 hundred dollars and why Elkas or PEP's are like 5-7 dollars..something like that.

works can perform just as well. yes the other companies are better but the works can perform good. and almost as well. But it dont matter what company. but that dont matter. unless you get LT, blaster susp blows ass.

If works can perform almost as good as the higher priced suspension, why do pro's waste there time on the expensive shocks..

im not jumping 50 footers or anything...yet. i probably will once i get more stuff. if the elka are 100x better than works, i might as well get them. they are only a couple hundred bucks more than works with rezzies. by the way, do u need a rezzie? does it make the shock better?

What they do is keep the shocks working good under heat, like keeps they cool, when you racing and riding for awhile, it'll keep them working good.. Theres a certain work for it but I can't think of it..lol.
