Awesome! Steve!! They've turned out rather well hey?...now when you get them riding and you start fettling with the adjustment, let me know what works for tweaking the ride. I still don't really know what settings are going to work best? (mind, not going to get feedback propped up the Garage Wall)...

they look great! what's the little red bolt in the arch for though?

It's for plugging a threaded hole/looking pretty...

 

[We_are_Stevo]

...that's to plug the pre-drilled hole for a bolt-on cant' hanger; and a matching 'accent' to the Rock Shox logo's

Edit: Beat me to it!

Cheers fella,

I'll give you some feedback when I get a moment.

Don't forget the springs take a few miles to 'bed in' so the intial 'feel' will probably change...

...and that Smoothrite has come up really nice

The hole is to bolt on the reflector that comes with them, needed in many countries.

can't find a picture of them quickly, but I did find this.

Well this has given me the bump to go rebuild the MAG's and JUDY's I have in bits... well if this new batch of rain stops and the sun comes back again.

[GT-Steve]

+1

Those lights are fantastic


Yeah, go for it fluff, and I forgot to mention in my rebuild posts on p7, that I used rock'n'roll super slick grease on all the 'moving' parts.

It's proper slippery, I don't mind tellin' ya..
