MP Custom Valve is an established and proven suspension specialist. Our passion is in the science and black art of improving the handling of your motorcycle or ATV, providing you with a safer, more controllable and enjoyable machine. We enjoy a well deserved reputation as being one of the leading suspension specialists in Southern Africa (and beyond)! All of our products and modifications have bee

n developed, refined and proven: both on and off road, under racing conditions and for use on the street. Road bikes are often compromised by cost, safety considerations and basic in-built shortcomings. We modify your suspension components to remove these deficiencies, giving you a tailor made solution based on your weight, riding style and ability. We modify or replace the internal valving, use superior quality oils and appropriate springs to give your bike the control and precision it deserves. MotoX bikes are essentially competition machines straight from the factory but manufacturers don’t always get it right every year, or make the suspension specifically for you. We have proven experience behind us to be able to adapt the suspension to your weight, ability and the type of terrain you’ll be riding or racing through. We can improve your suspension whether you are competing at the highest level or riding for recreation.
