Get in touch with these guys for all your DVO servicing needs.

Don't leave it till your kit is flogged and needs replacing...No excuses!

Quick math
Doing 50hrs in 6 months means riding your bike less than 2 hours a week. If you do more than that and haven’t done your lowers since February then guess what… it’s probably time to service your forks
We can do it for you at our home base in Christchurch or take it to any one of our experienced dealers around the country. We also sell the service kits at DVO.nz as well as have a video on YouTube on how to do it yourself if your want to give it a go
So go on, do the math… how far past your service interval are ya? 🤣

Tech tip!

Store your shock pump in a clean bag free of dirt/mud/sand or any nasties that have no place in your air chamber!!!

Quite often when I have suspension with slow leaks or inconsistent air pressure it's caused by contamination/dirt getting in the valve from a shock pump that's been stored in a dirty gear back or rolling around in the back of a van for 10 years...

If you're not 100% sure if your pump is clean most can be partially disassembled and cleaned, otherwise it might be a good time to upgrade.

Hi all,

Going forward if you need to message me about bike/suspension work could you please message me via the shop page(s) as I'm finding it really hard to keep track of who, what, when and where.

It makes it significantly easier for me to create bookings etc, and make sure nobody gets double booked causing delays in getting you back out riding.

Cheers, Ryan.

Crikey that's a bit of shaft wear💀

Reminder that all suspension needs maintenance! Don't let it get this bad...

Back into it, service spots are booking out fast. Sounds like plenty of damage was done over the holidays!

Making the most of the time off...

Cheeky trip to Rotorua goes good!

Some considerations for when you purchase your next frame/shock.

The new 2022 DVO Topaz X is made with shock destroying frames in mind!

This week we dive into common mounting types of rear shocks, and how they affect the durability of your shock.

Hey!

Just a heads up we will be closed from the 23rd of December till the 10th of January, for some much needed time off and hopefully a bit of riding🚵‍♀️

Only a couple of bookings available next week and that's it for the year, so get in touch soon if you need anything sorted before the holidays.
