Re: Thanks again for all the input , thinking back there could have been a slight issue with it feeling a bit soft before the seal decided to self destruct in the garage . It just feels like it needs a lot more air pressure even when it’s pumped up to max recommend pressure . The noise...

Re: Re: Yes , seems to work ok but just really soft . I did wonder if the o ring on the air piston is leaking by ? The other strange thing is you can hear the oil running up and down if you invert them , I know this sounds obvious but I have never noticed before and when you adjust the...

Re: Re: Thanks for the reply , that’s what I did in the end but they still seem to blow through half there travel just sitting on the bike so there under the bench in disgrace until I pull them down again and see if I can see the problem :facepalm: Paul.

Hi guys Finally got around to buying seals for my 2005 Fox float r forks , im trying to find out the correct way of re filling with oil after i have fitted the seals etc . Some say 20 or 30 ml in the lower left leg put in from the bottom and 155 ml in the right leg ( damper side ) again from...

Re: Hi guys Back on the hunt for these again :facepalm: https://www.flickr.com/photos/151435315 ... res/Ha6582 I picked these up but they are not long enough , These are A 43mm B 12mm and C 7mm SO PLEASE NOTE ; the ones I need are the same type with the 6mm thread but the shaft with the...

Re: That’s going to be stunning , looks like your size too :lol: Paul

:lol: :lol: I could cope with that it’s length / stroke that are not off the peg so I would need to spend twice the cost of the frame to get a shock to fit :facepalm:

Re: Very nice 8) I have a really nice 07 version of that frame but the damping has gone in the shock and its an odd size :facepalm: Paul

Re: Looking good 8) I like the look of these frames and they seem to be a bit of a bargain ! Wasn’t it the first full suss to win an Xc championship bitd ? Paul

Re: Re: Sorry to hear that mate , all the best . Paul

Re: Not sure if its my eyes but is that some nasty looking rust on the seat stays ? Paul

Re: Re: Hi , I have 2005 ish kona kikapu that I bought as donor so I don’t know much about it , there doesn’t seem to be any play anywhere and the shock pumps up but that’s about as much as I know :D it’s pretty scruffy with a fair bit of corrosion but not a basket case lol ! Drop me a pm if...

Re: How important is the cosmetic condition and is full suss an option ? theres food for thought for you :lol: Paul

Re: Great looking bike 8) have you always ridden flat pedals ? i have only really ridden spds and i find riding flats kills my knees :facepalm: Paul

No , not the stumpy or the weed :lol:

Re: Looks good 8) really like the look of these . I built up a 26er Scandal recently but the fox fork seal decided to blow while it was hanging in garage so not even ridden it yet :facepalm: Paul

maybe the case here too , unless your interested its just an old bike , as proved a few nights ago, stuck in the usual traffic jam home i noticed one of the average local drug dealer / runners outside a shop on one those nice early 90s drab green stumpjumpers , pulled up , dropped it on the...

Is that , mellow yellow ?
