Does anyone service these SAB shocks?

That is a Risse Elroy.
Easy to service - you just need to de-pressurise it and then unscrew the the black collar. Not as easy as it sounds as you can't clamp the main body.
Wadsy as I had to put a piece of metal rod through the two holes in the bottom end of the shock (on the end of the shock hidden within the seatstay on the bike) and we then used a 2ft bar on the other end (with some assistance from a hot air gun). Be VERY gentle as the alloy is quite soft.
BTW - I phoned and emailed Risse about a dozen times and got ZERO response from them! I measured the o-rings and bought a load from Ebay the right size - I still have a load so can probably put together a set for you.
