So far so good. I have a Penske on my track bike. So, that's all I have to compare it to. Super easy low/hi compression adjustment. I like the rims, too. Really easy to feel the weight difference...

They're fine for street riding. Great wet grip. I'll probably go with something else next time. Just to try something new.

Yes, it is a remote resevoir. They give you an aluminum bracket to mount it to your subframe. I'm not sure about stock undertail, though. It might require some trimming...

It is made by Pestana. Alot of guys here have had communication issues w/ them recently. If I had to buy a new one right now, I probably would go w/ another brand. If you really want one, you can find them on eBay sometimes or on their website: http://www.bikepartsforyou.com/ I've heard of some people waiting almost 2 months for the part.

Here's their eBay feedback: http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAP...item=-1&de=off

Ok thanks!
It looks so fine, more than others that i saw. But is very expensive... 2 months is a lot of time, and i'm from spain.

probobly too early to tell but what is the biggest difference you notice going from stock to the Elka?

Yes, the forks have the Dan Kyle treatment. I really like the Elka. I am really pleased w/ it so far. Great and easy adjustment. It also comes standard w/ a shock bearing. So, turning the preload collar is pretty easy.
