One of my leo's rear shock absorbers started to leak oil at around 8kkm, so I thought about changing them to "performance" ones. But since I succeded in getting it changed on warranty (Took several month), I postponed the replacement.
But I was very close to ordering and got the following quotes (Spring 1999 - but as of 5/2000 the price from Rollershop is still valid).
But by the summer of 2000 both shock abosrbers were so worn that i couldn't ignore it anymore and I bought a set of the cheapest Bitubo. What a difference the made. It was as getting a completely new scooter again :) I bought them from Rollershop GmbH [D]
When Roller Spezial tested the 125cc leo over 25000km the also changed the rear shocks to Bitubo after only ~10000km

Hester Motorsport [D] | Its supposed to be very similar to the ZVB except that it can't be renovated should it start to leak. But at half the price of the aprilia shocks, who cares :-) | 289dm |
