Any half-way competent bike shop will have the gear.
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

do they have a valve for regas or not? if they have a valve you can use a shock pump from a mountain bike to do the job. If not they need to be regased in a chamber. The shock is placed into a chamber and this is then pressurized to force gas past the seal into the shock.
Nitrogen is generally used because it is a completely "clean" gas.

Sean at SOS Suspension is very helpful and likes working on Vintage. Shock Treatment sent me to him when I had to get my Works Performance shocks serviced.
