Well not my rear shock, my partners.
She rides a 2000 (think it's a 2000) Specialized Rockhopper FSR, has the tubed front end, rather then mono.
Anyways... on the back it's running a Fox Float. I have just noticed that the coating on staunchon part is wearing, mainly around the first bit wear the shock sits on it's sag. Also there is 1 piece about 5mm round that has worn through and it's nice and shiny, so I'm assuming it's through to the alloy? It's not leaking any air or oil...
So I guess what I am asking is, that the shock is poked even though it's still working fine right? And she should keep on riding till it starts leaking?
