What to check before you buy

Suspension forks and rear shocks are the most service-dependent parts on a bike. Check the stanchions for scratches, pitting or a worn anodised coating, which will chew through seals, and look for oil on the seals or stanchions. Ask when the fork or shock was last serviced and by whom. Confirm the travel, the steerer type and length, the axle standard and the wheel size before buying, and for a rear shock confirm the eye-to-eye length and stroke match your frame exactly.
