how can you inprove the suspension on your bike without changing the suspension forks?

i have a bike at the moment and the suspension is ok but i want it to be better but i dont have alot of money can anyone help me ?? also how can you improve the back suspension?

Hey Luke,

Without knowing what brand and model fork you have it is hard to make a recommendation. If you have an older fork you can change out the elastomers or elastomer and spring inside of the shock legs or fork tubes. If you have a newer shock you can change the spring and switch to a heavier or lighter shock oil. Now if you have a cheapo bike with a cheapo fork you are outta luck, you need to purchase a new fork.

For the rear you can change out the shock spring to a higher spring rate or send your shock out to get an upgraded valving and seals, but that would cost too much.

Just change the rear spring and the springs or elastomers for your front fork if you want an inexpensive fork and rear shock upgrade.
