1999 Sid SL now reduced - £75 posted

Sweet pair of 1999 Rock Shox SID SL's. Very good condition, only a couple of marks in the stickers, but very minor. 198mm inch and an eighth steerer so will fit bigger bikes.

I bought them from a chap in France who had combined two forks to make one (XC crown and SL lowers) which means they have slightly different inners (see pics). I fitted them and rode them once, but then stripped and sold the bike and have had them since. I paid 130 Euro for them but stupidly followed the pressure settings on the leg of the lowers (they were for a different internal set up and therefore way too high :roll: ) and I think I may have blown the seals as the negative chamber doesn't hold air for more than a few days (positive is fine). :roll: With this in mind I will sell them at a big fat loss (I seem to have a talent for it). - £85 posted

New seals. Not sure how much they are, but last time my LBS quoted me £30 for an oil change and new seals. On that basis I expect the seals are about £20 (EDIT) if you wanted to do it yourself.

I'm not entirely sure. I think it just means that they Run lower pressures and feel a bit plusher.
