Hi All, starting to think about shocks. I have heard the Leda shocks are quite good all rounders.

I know they went out of business but I hear they has started up again...

Has anyone else got any recomendations?

I've used various makes.Koni double adjustables.Bilstiens,JZR etc .Protech are rebuildable,alloy and use Bellville washers to control the oil flow adjustment.For the price I don't think you can do better.I run them on my Elise and they are a great improvement on the Konis. However make sure you get the right bump/rebound ratio. It's usually 3:1 but for a light car maybe 2:1. Winston
