I'm looking to sell the Vit soon, but the suspension needs doing pretty badly. I'm not after cheap and nasty (if that exists), but don't want fully sik articulation either!

What's the cheapest option for springs and dampers you would put in it and still keep your dignity?

Not a bad idea, but I think "new" suspension might be a good selling point.

What condition, and what price?

Heard good and bad about these (like all brands I spose). Was hoping to get away with it a bit cheaper. Was even considering Gabriels or something.

Extra height isn't a necessity, just need to replace the current ones, which are probably the originals.

So, any further suggestions on any other entry-level options for new springs and dampers?
