Ohlins here.

If you need maintenance on your Ohlins, talk to WorksEvo. I believe they are the only licensed company that can service Ohlins suspension here in america other than Ohlins themselves.

In my list, I would go for Ohlins then KW, then Fortune.

Works do not service them themselves. Don't believe their marketing hype. They walk them down a couple doors to Performance Shocks Inc, also located at Sears Point, which service them.
