It's the opposite of a lowering kit. It's been slowly being to become for than a Bay Area thing and growing all over California. Now we have made it affordable for everyone. Instead buying new shocks that are longer you can buy our lift kit brackets. They lift the back of your bike 1 1/4". This gives you added clearance and changes your trail slightly to give you added handling as well. They are perfect to use for awhile until you can afford to spend 7-8-900 or more on some longer shocks. Or maybe just to try out and see if you want to lift your bike up. Retail price for these are $140 includes hardware!
