VintageOhlins

Hey guys (or gals) anyone know anything about Steve Marpes of VintageOhlins in South Carolina? Any work ever done with him?

I would like you to consider Drew Smith at WER. And Craig C. at the Huskyclub.com

Is Craig at Huskyclub still around? Phone #?

drew will get all my future ohlins work!

OK, thanks!

Just search the web for husky club of latest number. He only does ohlins now. Husky stuff all gone.

Folks here really like Drew and all rave his work

Used Craig from past cause he has my valving shims numbers all set for me. Did not know Drew at that time. Craig has a lot of parts, more that most.

Steve Marpes worked at OHLINS USA for several years. He was their vintage shock guy and started his own business a few years ago. He knows his stuff when it comes to the OHLINS.

Second or third vote for Drew. He has been running Husky (mostly ITC) for last 4 years. Got it down to a sciencde as well as springs and if you feel you need the gold valves for forks too.

wow how weird i'v been looking for him[STEVE] for like two weeks found him just a Minuit ago[On marks vintage swap-meet] been texting

I hate to say any thing negative here but you asked, I sent my remote ohlins to steve and he told me he could not get the one apart and deemed them un rebuildable but he just so had another pair he could sell me on his shelve for a lot more money. So I told him to send them back and I let the shock soak in PB blaster for a week or two and I got it apart and sent them to Drew Smith at WER and he rebuilt them and sent them back good as new. So yes Drew gets my vote.

Drew just took a set a very very bad 78 remote husky and made them up for a 80 PE 175 for mre as a gift to a buddy. new bottoms , hoses, basicaly kept shafts, reservoirs and bodys and top mount

amazing and fast turnaround

not ohlins, but i had the suspension from my 95 back from drew super fast...packed well and the guy will talk things over on the phone as well.

Sounds like Drew is the man! Thanks.

Yes Drew is the man.
