Meet Mike Boon, Suspension Specialist

Mike Boon is the suspension tuner behind ST Tuned in Irvine, CA, bringing nearly 20 years of hands-on experience to every fork and shock that comes through the shop.

With nearly 20 years of experience working on suspension systems across every major brand — including Fox, RockShox, Öhlins, Marzocchi, Cane Creek, and DVO — Mike Boon brings unmatched expertise and attention to detail to every fork and shock he touches.

Mike’s background includes servicing suspension for everyday riders, local legends, and elite-level racers alike. His approach is deeply rider-centric: he listens to your feedback, evaluates your riding goals, and translates all of that into actionable suspension changes that make a real difference on the trail. It’s this range of experience that’s made Mike and the ST Tuned team one of the local suspension experts Orange County riders turn to first.

Whether you’re fighting harsh mid-stroke feel, bottoming out too easily, or just not getting the grip you expect, Mike has the technical experience and diagnostic instincts to dial it in. He doesn’t rely on guesswork — he uses real-world testing, data, and feedback loops to fine-tune your suspension to perfection.

What sets Mike apart isn’t just his skill with tools — it’s his passion for helping riders get more confidence, speed, and enjoyment from their bike. From custom damping tunes to bushing sizing, on-trail testing, and factory-grade rebuilds, Mike treats every bike like it’s headed to the start line.

Whether you’re chasing seconds in a race run, or chasing smiles on your Saturday ride, you’re in expert hands.
