Rock Shocks have a long history in off road competition with success in all branches of the sport. After many years of close association with Girling, Eddy Bar Products was formed as a registered company in July 1976. The main product range at that time was the Girling “Gas Shock”.
When Girling ceased production of the popular Gas Shock it was decided to fill the gap in the market with our own “Rock Shocks”.
Initially these were made for us by another company and the first batch made their debut at the Scottish Six Day Trial. Every rider using Rock Shocks finished the event. Despite some teething problems, we gathered valuable information about the performance of the Rock Shocks and proceeded to modify the problem areas.
As a result of the modifications Rock Shocks began to dominate trials in the 1980's. Almost every British National Solo and Sidecar Trial Championship, including Schoolboy A & B held in 1980, 81, 82, B3, and 84 was won on Rock Shocks.
With the arrival ofthe Monoshock, the decision was taken to cease production. Thirty years later in 2006, Twin Shock Trials were growing in popularity and new improved Rock Shocks are back by popular demand.
The new alloy bodied Rock Shocks feature 12mm piston rods, improved internal adjustable damping characteristics and extended top and bottom mountings. Rock Shocks are available in all the standard lengths, between 330mm to 410mm (13in-16.125in) with bushes to suit most of the popular twin shock trlals bikes.
An enormous advantage for the rider is that Rock Shocks can be stripped down, serviced and tuned yourself.
Now Pete Edmondson after all the years of developing such a good product has decided to pass on the rock shock business to me, John Bull. I have been involved in sport for many years and in motor sport through my CNC Machining company which has since been sold. This has now allowed me to concentrate on the Rock Shocks and a small batch of DOT trials bikes.
