1995 Rocky Mountain Vertex

Syncros seatpost added and a Titec 118 titanium bar. Just need to sort out the inner ring situation and we're done.

That's better. What did you do about the fork internals?

This fork is in excellent shape internally, apart from the all too common crumbly elastomers. Replaced them with some coils of unknown origin that I found lurking in the garage. Also fitted new seals and fresh oil in the damper. A shedload of Slikoleum grease and all should be good till the damper inevitably shits itself again!

Nice, I put Speed Springs in my '96 SL, worked out pretty good. Do you have the ti bolts on yours?

Yeah, springs are a nice upgrade, ride nicer, aren't affected by temperature and won't crumble. The only downside is the added weight, if that bothers you, they're not really 'SL' anymore.
Yep, they have the Ti bolt kit.
