Damper maintenance

We at Rad & Dämpferklinik Berlin have been offering a comprehensive service for spring elements and damping systems for all types of bicycles (mountain bikes, trekking and touring bikes) for a long time. We use simple language so that all our customers can understand our services.

The parts on a mountain bike that absorb shock and ensure safety while riding are the suspension forks and shock absorbers. These components have to withstand extreme loads and weather conditions because they spring in and out several times per second. They must withstand rain, mud, sand and temperature changes.
Your bike's suspension forks and shock absorbers need regular care to avoid excessive wear and tear and malfunctions. Seals and wipers as well as the damping and lubricating oil wear out, which impairs their performance. Only regular maintenance ensures a long service life and reliable function of your suspension elements.

We are the perfect contact for all questions and difficulties with suspension forks and shocks.

If accepted, the suspension will be tested and professionally disassembled.
With the environmentally friendly cleaning device from Bio-Circle it is gentle
