Hi All,
Had these forks for about 5/6 years, but i stopped using them a couple of year back due to one of the blue anodised adjusters "popping off" on a ride never to be seen again.
I had the forks in a local bike shop who told me they wanted £100 to repair them. I naturally walked away - the forks only cost me £120 off ebay!
My question is: What IS actually wrong with them? They seem to still work as smooth as ever and i cant see any oil leaks etc. Are they useable in this state or is it terminal?
Finally, could i repair them myself (pretty handy with a spanner).
Pics:
Thanks for reading, any help much appreciated!
