I'm not familiar with any of their stuff except their exhaust. One thing I know about their exhaust is it is way to LOUD!!

Dont get suspension, I'll have to look into it myself But I think they dont offer you the same customization as other companies.
Their nerfs are awesome, I havent had a problem with mines. Their bumpers are really good to. I have to say Alba is probably my favorite company out their. Their stuff is inexpensive and great quality!

Lol, I meant I didnt feel a difference between the axis and Pep,
It was a huge difference between those and my standards, no comparison.

If you are looking into suspension...I would look into GT Thunder. They take your stock shocks and modify them...they come back with the ATV FourPlay A-Arms...and the price is AMAZING you can't beat it - Anywhere...not for the quality. I have ridden this setup on a quad and I will be having GT set up my 2007 YFZ
PS: I would not put one dime into Elka suspension...to few people are happy with it...most everyone I talk to and from my experience say they are awful.
