Storing your rig??

[jtboogie]

When putting up your rig after a run and after a brief cleaning, how should you store it? What I mean is should you just let it sit on the tires on a shelf or should you have something under the chassis and let the wheels hang as in not touching anything? I ask this because I have seen mixed answers on this question in the past and mainly I ask for preserving the life of your shocks.

You can either take the tires off and sit the kit on top of the tires so your tires dont get lop sided and your shocks will be fully extended. or you can take the wheels and hang your kits on the wall. either way works.

+1, thats what I have been doing but have purchased a range rifle stand that looks like a hobby stand so I am using that now.

so storing a rig like this would be incorrect ?

Thats fine too...as long as theres no pressure on the tires and the shocks are fully extended. Thats the two main goals.

Nothing wrong with the Sprite method

Its the same concept I used when storing my MX bike, keep both wheels off the ground and any pressure off of the suspension as it would help preserve the life of the seals.
