Protech Rear Shock

[WINTERMODEL150]

Had a protech shock on my gp for 13 years without any problems.

the fact that they shafted the Scooterist that originally commissioned Hagon to make them wouldn't inspire me to buy one

They could be the best shock on earth but I wouldn't buy one for the above reason. I'm using a BGM and its great although a bit expensive.

Who makes the protech and how long has it been out?

Made by Protech, they've been around for years, at least 13 (see above) with Lambretta shocks

Think mine come from taffspeed

[Yanker]

The 'Protec' is nothing more and nothing less than the Taffspeed shock in it's latest and long lived format if I am not mistaken.

Perhaps people should be refusing to buy them 'on moral grounds' in memory of Terry and in support of Ian?

A fabulous shock absorber for the Lambretta IMHO, only slightly less desirable without the Taffspeed sticker and well worth the +/- £150 price tag.

Forget Hagon at £100: they were decent value until 'the' Wespa head wanted a piece of the action: now no longer competitive.

What happened to the glorious old happy days when u could buy, bush and re-spring an R1 for £80?

Step-on

thanks for the reply`s. think i may go down the lighter spring on the R1 route .

I do have a Bituto in the shed, from the 80`s , missing bottom bush and by now i expect the seals would have perished, can they be refurbed and if so by whom ?

If I remember right,PM Tuning used to do the service on em.Pretty sure that's whom makes the PM shocks too aswell as the scomadi ones.
