fast ace is used mostly for MX racing. not too good for stunting unless ur doing podiums over 40 ft gaps

Look, here in Europe
original Honda CRF50s never got that far until chinese knock-offs came around
blasting the market.

And for all these chinese bikes - most of them quite good and reliable though-
FastAce is the only option besides Marzocchi... wich is already expensive around here.

They ain't bad at all; completely adjustable, sensitive, stiff
but yea, they're intended for motard/cross mainly,
so you may need to stiffen them up completely.

Rear shocks are sick.

just get you some +1's and stiffer springs, that is all you need, get a stiffer rear spring too.

Fiddypimp, you know I have one of those I use to use. Here is a pic. I have an I-shock with res now, but this one is for sale. Just stiffen it up how you like it with the preload, and you also have compression and rebound adjust as well.

i was actually thinking of their forks, i don't think you can go wrong with any rear shock, anything that is stiffer is going to be better than the stock one. that is definitly a quality shock too.

you should pick up Prickster's, he'll give you a good deal i'm sure, i hate to say anything good about em, but i guess he's an alright guy
