SPAM!!!

Ha! First one to point out that this is SPAM. You other SPAM declaring b1tches are too slow for my ninja ways. Suckas...

lidarman · 07-21-2008

I gave up.

I can't seem to find any fresh ways to make the spam threads more interesting.

Plus, I must have cursed myself in the Mountainsmith thread because our pack failed (shoulder strap) over the weekend in the back country. if I poke fun here, my shock my explode.

Welcome to my nightmare. Pay no attention to those silly mortals. Every post here is SPAM in one way or another.

By the way, I actuallly appreciate the message as I am having some issues with my FOX RP3. I don't want to push it because I like the lockout.

It's not so much of a slam against your post, but more of a joke against threads and posts created to advertise since there has been a fare bit of debate about this subject on the FR boards in the past. Personally, I don't care for threads like this one, but if the powers that be give it the green light I guess I'll have to accept it, eh?

ignazjr · 07-21-2008

Hey Dirt Labs, I'm glad to see that you've finally got it going. Good luck with everything. I'll give props to Luby - he's a good guy and does good work. Plus he got left behind in the Maverick fallout and he's got a family to support.

SlowerThenSnot · 07-21-2008

If I wasnt full rigid...

I'd be all over this. Luby's good people!

davec113 · 07-21-2008

I think one new thread announcing a new shop or service is fine.

Good Luck!

dash · 07-21-2008

Can't wait for the bike to break again....which will probably be soon. Thanks for the info.

nOOby · 07-21-2008

would this be a 'push' equivalent?

Dirt Labs · 07-21-2008

Similer to Push, But I will work on Most brands. I know most other of the other Suspesnions Shops around the U.S. and all of them have been very supportive.

Renegade · 07-21-2008

Dirtlabs, is your bussiness mostly about rebuilding/servicing with original parts, or are you also into modifying and offering custom suspension? Do you fabricate any of your own components?

euroford · 07-21-2008

darnit, i was in boulder the other day and suffering a leaky seal on my van, would have stopped in.

BlueMountain · 07-21-2008

Would have tried you guys but just got another shock PUSH-ed. Maybe I'll call to chat about the Pike even though I have to say- my loyalty lies with PUSH- those guys got some crazeee skillz...

Co4runnin · 07-22-2008

Hey, I just came across this thread and I just wanted to put in my two Cents about Dirt Labs.

I was looking for a shop that was confident enough to work on my Maverick DUC32 when the the travel adjuster went out. When most shops were kinda iffy, I ended up contacting maverick and they recommended Luby at dirt labs.

Not only was he wanna the nicest shop guys i've ever dealt with, but when i told him i was planning on riding keystone that week he had super fast turnaround (next day). He asked lots of questions about my riding and riding style which led to a much improved DUC32 and future customer.

I get off work when his shop is closes so he was nice enough to meet at the shop at later hours so that i could drop it off and pick it up. Its not often that you see someone go above and beyond to earn your business. Luby seemed like a guy that just loved mtn biking and was easy to talk to. I really hope this shop takes off.

I would really recommend this shop and Luby.

Do you really need to bring that up on a family forum?

IndecentExposure · 07-22-2008

Spam, Shmam... Good to know there's another shock company in town that I can DRIVE my stuff too.

PUSH does excellent work. Great guys, great service, great product. However... a little competition usually pays dividends to the consumers.
Props to Luby for having the minerals to give startup biz a shot. Best of luck in your new endeavour!

BlueMountain · 07-22-2008

Awight...I may call to see how effectively you guys convince me to send in my Pike.

thehighlife · 07-22-2008

I was on my way out of town to ride Monarch Crest and was stoked for the trip. I thought I was screwed when I went out the the garage to find my seals leeking 1 day before the trip. I heard about Dirt Labs and called, Luby was able to rebuild my Duc32 in 1 day. This shop is pro, thanks again Luby you rock!

madriver16 · 07-22-2008

Dirt Labs is awsome! Great customer service and excellent turn around time. Super nice to have a local speciality sus shop. Right on Luby!

Puddy · 08-15-2008

I don't post often but the experience I had with Luby and Dirt Labs deserve a post. I wasn't getting the ride I wanted out of my Duc so I took it in to Dirt Labs and had him do an overhaul and tune.

Luby was great to work with; spent some time with me discussing what I wanted and how I ride and then worked his magic. Plus he had my bike back to me quick (of course it starts raining and snowing so the weekend plans have changed!).

I will be recommending Dirt Labs to all my friends.

there have got to be a number of unbelieveable jokes in that comment!

for example you should be full rigid to get all over it.

or something punchy along those lines.

honkinunit · 08-15-2008

Do you have the tools to work on a Lefty?

All of you smartazzes about to chime in with "all you need is a headset tool to remove it and throw it away" can refrain.

Thank you.

philze · 08-15-2008

I recommend based on my experience on a M Bits tune up. Very fast turnaround.

nOOby · 08-15-2008

do you even need a headset tool?

I keed!

schnauzers, The only shocks that we work on where we have to take away adjustability are the older FLOAT RL and RC models. THE RP3 and RP23 retain all of the external adjustment features such as rebound and Propedal. With our tuning kits for those shocks we can either increase or decrease the range that the lever adjusts based on customer application.
