Need some opinions guys, I am tinkering with the idea of replacing the front forks on my Marin Team DH.
There is nothing wrong with the function of the original fork thats on it as they are working fine ,only thing is that the pre load adjuster seems stiff and slightly seized , i would love to get the originals put right but no one seems to think these forks are serviceable in this day an age
I am not much of mechanic so wouldn't even attempt some of the advice i have been suggested.
So what do i do ,Do i replace the whole fork for one more serviceable or do i hunt around and see if someone can service the original ?
Is there a fork from around that time more serviceable today than the original ?
Would of preferred to keep the originals tho as this bike has some sentimental memories if i am honest
Heres the big bitch below
