How to get Custom, Correct Elastomers for your Proflex!

[Once A Hero]

I’m looking to get some new elastomers for my 550 (as they are dead, squished flat) but the main option out there appears to be via www.suspensionforkparts.net but all the options are amber in colour, which wouldn’t match the OEM look of my model.

I’m close to pushing the button, but keen to see if other options are out there as the cost is high and the finished product a risk. Perhaps this thread will help?

I got mine off someone on here couple of years ago who makes them in Hungary. Bit pricey but seemed worth it for the original yellow look.

Found the old thread for custom made in Hungary:

For Sale - The END! We have stopped! Silicone Springs - elastomers for Manitou/RockShox/Proflex

UPDATE: Dear former customers and interested parties, unfortunately, we have some bad news: raw material prices have skyrocketed and elastomer production is a very energy-intensive process. As a result, the price of the product has increased so much that we have decided not to make another...
