I need to get everything to charge shocks. Had the Motion Pro guage on my X-Mas list this past year and Santa didn't disappoint. Now I need to move on to the bottle , regulator and whatever else I need. The local welding supply shop says they have small nitrogen bottles and regulators but I am clueless as to what I really need here. Trying to find someone locally to charge stuff up is like pulling teeth, and then you have to wait.....and wait.....and wait. Biggest issue I have is a set of Fox Air shocks I have to stay on top of since the bike they are on only gets ridden once a year or so. Any tips appreciated!

Just buy the smallest tank.. a 300 psi regulator... bring your motion pro gauge to the weld shop and they'll make you a hose to connect it all... and your done. About $300-$350

Newmann... ask the shop where you are getting your gas, but Argon is virtually identical and a lot cheaper. I have Argon in my shock and have noticed zero difference in performance.

Joe:

Just call me & I can let you barrow my setup! you can used it to service all your shocks or you can use it to make your own setup.

I only use mine about twice a year.
