I need to get my RS Vivid coil overhauled, so I went to Garageworks' website and called them a few times, I have only gotten an answering machine, no people. Do they not answer their phone? I left a voicemail, but no call back?.... I was hoping to drop off my shock locally instead of sending it to Push, but Push customer service is looking really good about now...
They moved to Oceanside Steves really cool and will get ya set up properly Address: 318 Via Del Norte, Oceanside, CA 92058 Phone:(760) 966-1048
I do Vivids. I'm in West LA. edits: ooops, noticed youre in Dana Point. I only ship out Saturdays. You may be better off with Push or GW.
thanks for the updated contact info! I called Steve and was quoted $150 to overhaul the shock. The price actually seems fair for the work, but I now I'm starting to wonder if I should buy a new (vivid coil $300, ccdb $450), used ($150-$250 on PB), or just repair my shock (~3 yrs old). What would you do?
If youre not happy with the shock, then buy a different one. When buying used, I'd still have it rebuilt though. If you're happy with the shock, a full rebuild will change o-rings, seals, glide rings, detent balls, detent springs, schrader valve, etc etc and new oil. I wouldn't buy a new one for 20 bucks more if I know the shock I already have is going to be rebuilt properly.
Used but you will still have to rebuild it I really never trust anyone that says....only 3 rides or just serviced unless a receipt or i know the person
Yep then another $150 as the places they can be sent is limited. Garage works did get mine back real quick.
