Can he also set DH forks? You know how important fork and rear shock adjustments are hmmmm you are right ...we should highlight their specialies and limitations I ll make a summary after the list gets filled up

as i've observed. talagang wheel alignment ang specialty nya.. almost all of my wheelsets had been done by mang nestor and it's really matibay, even a year na of abuse, god pa rin ang wheels, as i normally go to other shops for them to check it, sabi nila, ok lang daw.
one more thing, tuning your shifting is also his specialty. there was this time n when i arrived and narining lang nya bike ko, sinabi n s kin yung prblem, and he immediately worked on it that time..
one thing they lack is the proper tools, like yung pang-align ng drop-out.
but nestor is good in handling your precious dh bike. he takes care in handling it and try to make sure everything is good...
note: he also specializes in repairing 'bengkong' in your rimset.. by using pukpok tools...

for my DH bike I usually go to myself,
;D download the manuals over the net! have the right tools for the job.
go ahead dont be afraid of the techy stuff,
meron picture just like komiks hehehehe.
spend a little time with your dh bike.
set up is trial and error, experiment, find the best setting for your style of riding.
i can change oil of my dh fork, change oil seals, o rings, sealed bearings........
bleed brakes (shimano), change hydro cables,
with a shock pump, i can play with the air setting of DHX 5.0 and boxxer WC.
i even fixed my leaking moco unit! genius ako. hehehe
;Done time, i ride with the HSC black box, circuit on MOCO boxxer removed, for a black boxless set up, just to feel the difference.
;Dhave fun.
