haha gotcha. I will investigate.

As a fellow Londoner, I'll keep an eye out for you on a 752 out and about!

Great seeing early Proflex's , would'nt mind seeing a pic of the 752, that was my first proper MTB, bought new from Shockwave in Glasgow, the frame was later replaced under warranty by an 852.

BTW i thought i was fine to hammer headsets in with a block of wood until i cracked a (alloy) headtube a headset press is recommended.

Anyone know of a source for replacement shocks, or replacements for the flexstem?

The replacement I bought for the rear was supposed to fit but doesn't.

did you look at suspensionforksuplies?

There is a product called 'Lurethane' elastomer that can be turned and milled to suit??

Bitd I used to run skateboard bumpers called "clouds" in my flexstem not sure if they're still available though? (And my stem had steel quill section too).
