I am just about to buy a set of shocks and i am torn between the spax and the damper tech ones what would i get for spending £50 more on the damper tech ones?

I think you may be mistaken somewhere along the line.

Protec are offered by MK
GAZ by Damper Tech
Spax by Everyonee.

GAZ and Spax internally are very similar, using many of the same parts, and as such you will get the same performance which ever one you buy so go for the cheapest.

The Protec is a better shock, and offers internals that are at least different to the others, and have a better adjuster system.

Kind regards,
Darren

you are totaly right its a case of x-mass head up arse!

The question should read What benifits are there with buying the protech dampers at £300 from MK as apposed to buying gaz shocks at £250 from Dampertech?

(answer is probably going to be nothing?)

The protechs are lighter, less likely to rust and jam up, the adjustment mechanism is more reliable and very worth the extra £50.
