helldriver Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 awesome shocks, very bad customer service, expect at least a 4-8 month wait for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txblueshee Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 awesome shocks, very bad customer service, expect at least a 4-8 month wait for them How is that very bad customer service? B/c he has more work than he has help!??! Wayne is one of the nicest guys in the suspension business... If you need them faster go though mark @ baldwin racing he is the only guy wayne licensed to build his shocks... Best shocks money can buy... Don't open your mouth about "BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE" when you don't know what the fuck your talking about... Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helldriver Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 (edited) well being you can get Elka shocks in two weeks, custom Axis in like 2-4 weeks,and other brands in quicker time,, and the fact that he will tell you oh it will only take 4 weeks, when ot really takes 6 months it s kinda called bullshit, and if you let baldwin build them, its not a pep shock in my book, its a pep shock when wayne builds them i know of at least 5 people that will never use peps again because of bad customer service,,, and that counts alot.. for me anyways Edited August 3, 2006 by helldriver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txblueshee Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 Axis is a minimum 6 week wait time... I've also never hear wayne tell anybody less than 4 months... If it's not a PEP then what the fuck is it? Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawarriorman Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 All I want to know is what does he do that makes them worth the wait. Seriously. Is it just his experience that your paying for, his know-how in valving a shock? He can't be that busy, nobody uses his stuff anymore. Everyone has jumped ship to elka. I can't blame them either, they'll sponsor about anybody, and get your shocks to you quick. If they aren't valved spot on, so what, send them out to someone else. Hell, in the time it would take to get a set of PEPs, I could get shocks from elka, then send them to Todd at TCS, get them back from Todd as good of a shock as PEP would send me. Then I could still race a whole season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I could still race a whole season. It takes that long b/c he is THAT backed up... I don't know if the wait it quite 6 months anymore... I know somebody that got them in a hair under 3 months this summer... Everybody is jumping ship to ohlins and elka... Your right about them sponsoring anybody and elkas can't be beat when they are valved right... If you think your getting doug gust shocks from elka your fuckin looney though... The next set of shocks I order will some from precision concepts or baldwin racing... The problem about getting a set of shocks that aren't "spot on" is that it cost almost as much as a new set of shocks to get them rebuilt...
