Mountain Bike Shock Bushes FAQs

What makes high-quality MTB shock bushes important?

Precision-made MTB shock bushes are essential for maintaining smooth rear suspension performance and minimising wear on the shock hardware. Quality bushings ensure tight tolerances and consistent movement under load, reducing lateral play and noise while extending the life of both the shock and frame linkage. BETD’s MTB shock bushes are engineered for durability and precision, offering performance that meets or exceeds original manufacturer standards.

How can I tell when my mountain bike shock bushes need replacing?

You’ll usually notice increased play in the rear shock or a slight knocking sound when pedalling or descending. These symptoms indicate that the bushings have worn and are no longer maintaining proper alignment. Replacing your mountain bike shock bushes at the first signs of wear helps maintain suspension efficiency and prevents damage to mounting hardware or shock eyelets.

Are your MTB shock bushes compatible with all rear shocks?

Our MTB shock bushes are available in a wide range of sizes and materials to suit most major rear shock brands, including Fox, RockShox, and others. Each kit is designed for a specific eyelet diameter and hardware size, so checking compatibility before purchase is essential. If you’re unsure which setup your frame requires, our team can help identify the correct size and kit for your shock.

Can I fit new MTB shock bushes myself?

Yes, replacing MTB shock bushes can be done at home with the right tools, including a vice or bushing press. The key is to ensure the old bushings are pressed out evenly and the new ones seated squarely to avoid damaging the shock eyelet. If you don’t have the correct equipment or are unsure of the procedure, a professional mechanic can complete the job.

Do I need any extra hardware when changing mountain bike shock bushes?

In many cases, you’ll also need to inspect or replace the mounting hardware, including spacers, reducers, and bolts. Worn hardware can cause excessive movement even with new bushings installed. BETD supplies complete mountain bike shock bush kits with all necessary parts to ensure a perfect fit and consistent suspension performance.

How do I choose the correct MTB shock bushes for my setup?

To select the right MTB shock bushes, measure the eyelet width and bolt diameter of your current hardware, or refer to your frame manufacturer’s specifications. Our products include detailed sizing information for each bush kit, making it simple to find a precise match. If measurements are unclear, our team can advise on the ideal fit to ensure your suspension runs as smoothly and quietly as possible.



Do you stock bearings for all areas of a mountain bike?

mountain bike, including wheel hubs, suspension pivots, headsets, and bottom
brackets. Whether you need a single MTB bearing or a complete replacement kit, we can provide the correct fit for your bike; contact our experts for help with selecting the right parts for your specific MTB model.
