Refresher kit ordered. My TI Girvin elastomer disintegrated 30min into a 60mim ride today. I’ll post again after the repair.

Thats a lovely ride setup

Refresher kit from suspension fork parts fits perfectly. They supply both rubber washers, easy replacement. Definitely more squish than before.

Think I will try this too. Got a few spares from SFP. They defo feel nicer than the usual poly elastomers in retro forks.

Prior to purchasing this girvin ti bar/stem I’d never tried one. With Girvin being north east us based like Merlin and the fact I scored them Nos for $99 made it an easy purchase The original pads were rock hard, then disintegrated. Putting two new modern pads in changed everything. There’s compression and rebound. I loved it , hour ride in multiple conditions.

Was hoping the new ones I purchased would last more than two months

Have you contacted the supplier / manufacturer? Two months is not really acceptable after all.

Supplier was super helpful, already sent me harder compound.
