Chile Pepper News

Fall is here in Moab and the Interbike crowd has arrived. With Outer Bike this upcoming weekend various companies throughout the bike industry have come to Moab to show off their new products. We will be updating our Blog with info and pictures from the week’s events. So check back often to see what’s happening here in the desert.
For this post we are going to touch on Fox Racing Shox. Here at the Pepper we are lucky enough to have a great relationship with Fox Racing Shox. Not only do we ride their products and put it through the rigorous terrain of Moab but we also service their products here in the shop. For the second time this year we had our mechanic staff take part in a Fox clinic covering their new products and detailed service procedures. Nick DeLauder, Fox Racing Shox Technician, travels the country working on suspension for the Pros and has been coming to our shop here in Moab each year spending time on our couch and in our Pit increasing our knowledge of their forks inside and out.
The services we can provide here at the Pepper include trouble shooting fork issues, regular maintenance including new seals and Fork oil, and rear shock air sleeve service. All of which can be done usually within 24hrs- if not sooner. If you are headed our way this fall give us a call and we can work around your schedule to keep you riding.
We also stock numerous forks here in the shop to upgrade your ride and let you have a better Moab experience. If you are thinking of a new fork you might as well come to Moab, get it installed in the afternoon and catch a shuttle to Porcupine the following morning. Our current stock includes:

2010 32 Float 140, Standard QR, 1 1/8” Steerer ——- > $730.00
2011 32 F29, RLC FIT Cartridge, 1 1/8” Steerer ———- > $799.99
2011 36 Float R, 160 open bath, 1 1/8” Steerer ———– > $814.99

Fox Racing Shox has become the go-to suspension for mountain bikers worldwide so if you are already on their product come on in and we can help you set it up or perform any needed maintenance. If you are on anything else you don’t know how good Moab riding can be. Check in with us at the Pepper to get the low down on what plush suspension is all about.
