Pisgah 02Ready for a Big 2009

Greetings!
 
Ready for a big year?  We are. 

Thankfully, it seems like mountain bikers aren't paying attention to the negative news these days.  They just keep riding their bikes. That means we are busier than ever at Suspension Experts, which is just the way we like it.  So read on to see what's new in 2009 and how this is going to be our biggest year yet. 

Thanks,
Kevin, Shelley and Phil

Got ygold horz1our Goldilocks™ yet?
Be ahead of the curve and get the latest gold bling for your bike before the rest of the pack catches on. 

Once again we've teamed up with our friends at Industry Nine for a one of a kind upgrade for Maverick riders.  We've got a limited run of our Headlocks™ threaded sealheads in gold. We've got just 15 pairs of these Goldilocks™ left in stock.

The Goldilocks™ sealheads work just like our original red or blue Headlocks™. This upgrade is available for all Maverick current SC and DUC forks.  These "upside down" style forks can sometimes suffer from main seals popping out and covering the disc brake caliper with oil. The new sealheads capture the seal permanently with a threaded collar.

Goldilocks™ run $60.  Call 828-255-0205 or email Kevin to reserve your pair.

Welcome to the world!
Kevin, Shelley and big sister Lucy are proud to announce that Gardner Vaughn Booth was born on January 19, 2009.  Special thanks to Phil for running the shop solo for a few days while Kevin was home with the new baby.  Gardner is already used to life at Suspension Experts -- he sleeps through hammering, air compressors, and loud music.  We'll have him working on forks by his first birthday. 
We always look forward to customer feedback.  We're working on a new website and we definitely want your input.  Is there something you'd like to see on our new site?  Maybe more photos, local riding info, an online store, or something we haven't thought of yet.  Email Shelley with your ideas.

Thanks for reading.  And more importantly, thanks for being part of the mountain bike community and what makes Suspension Experts a great place to be. 
 
Sincerely,
