If I remember right they come with Elkas, which are your best bet for shocks. And while Alba makes decent stuff, from what I hear their customer support is terrible! Just from what I have heard, I would steer clear, if you do a search on Alba there should be a lot of reviews.

 

Personally I put all LoneStar stuff on my bike, but there are a ton of good arms out there. You can't go wrong with Laeger, QuickSand, Jannsen or LoneStar to name a few. Make sure the arms come with a lifetime warranty too.

Look into hydrodynamics. Full front suspension with S.S. brake lines for 700 bucks right now on ebay. I just finished installing my kit yesterday and it looks tight. Havnt tried it out yet though.

Buy that kit and sell the shocks if you want elkas real bad.

IMO what you hear about Alba is correct. They make/sell a good product, but there customer service completely ruins a person's satisfaction with their products.
