Title: What shocks are these?
Post by: Quicksilver on January 29, 2008, 06:43:11 pm

I raided these off another of my bikes to use on my CR125m until I get a new set. These work really well and are in great condition. Does anyone know what brand they are. They do have similar style to the original CR showa shocks with fin design at the bottom.

They look like Trickit shocks.. A brand that was around in the late 70's that had shocks and fork kits.

look close to the original 125 cr shocks, but not quite, they have the same fins on the body but not the cone shaped bottom.

BAsically i have NFI, dont know why i posted. sorry

they also made 'trickit' fork parts like damper rod extenders and trick little valve things to improve damping.

I've got a set of those that came on a 1976 Bultaco Alpina and the only writing I can see on them is "One Industries".
They are about 360mm long, appear to be well made and have a nice action with damping and spring rates suitable for pre-75 MX racing.
