    if you're west, PDQ is a short sprint along the M4. Not the cheapest but the service is top! Got my forks upgraded with K-tech internals there.

    Not used them but MD-Racing and Steve Jordan are also worth a shout

    Likely hood is your suspension is in a need of service so budget this in.

    It can be iterative process, you get the sags down then the rebound/comp adjusted go for a ride and return with feedback so the settings can be really dialled in.

    Alternatively you can get it set up up on the TD itself.
