This Alchemy Arktos rear shock needle bearing kit takes an already great suspension platform and takes the small-bump sensitivity to a new level. Since the factory hardware uses a 10mm thru-bolt, this kit includes complete replacment hardware to allow the integration of our 8mm hardware-based needle bearing kit.

The Alchemy frames have significant rotation inside the rear shock eyelet (back end). Our needle bearing kit will completely smooth out this high-friction connection and provide more supple suspension. There is NOT significant rotation within front shock eyelet, so you only need ONE kit per frame.
