Traxxion vs. Ohlins

[cardzilla]

I build suspension componenets and I buy a lot of things from Traxxion... I also have Ohlins forks so I have quite a bit of experience with them as well.  I concur with the earlier post about being able to turn Showas into worldbeaters, it all is up to the rider.  I recently worked on the latest CBR 600 fork and was amazed at how advanced it is, right off the shelf.

I relate this to the tire debate, everyone has their favorite and not everyone is THEIR fastest on the SAME tire.  It's a matter of preference once you've gotten to a certain level and TRX and Ohlins are certainly on that level.  Personally, I like K-tech componenets, but I recognize that all top stuff is just that.

I've heard many things about Max... some very bad too, but I've had nothing great experiences with him and his company.  Regardless of what you think about him you need to realize that he has brought components to the average racer that not to long ago were factory only.  It makes all other mfrs. step in line and realize there's competition, which is a good thing.
