Pull up to my (Manitou) bumper baby....

They're already drilled in the center, I don't see why they wouldn't work. People are spending $80 plus on elastomers, these seem like a great option. If they're too large in diameter, they'll be easily ground down with a bench grinder.

I’ve just done a 100usd with SFP and then there was shipping on top
Before you even get round to tax

I can see truck rubbers working for rebound and also bottom out bumpers but not for the main event

Yeah if the bore and OD work I can see truck bumpers being fine for topout bumpers.

I’ve used them to replace the rubber bushing on my Girvin Flexstem

Cheap as hell and when I went to swap it out it was identical to the NOS one that has turned rock hard

For about £4 it’s worth a shot tonnes on eBay from soft -Medium-Hard

I LOVE YOU!!!!

Which hardness would you suggest for a lard arse on a hardtail set up?

 

[Retro Spud]

To be honest I’d go with medium as your using them only for rebound (right?)

If you go too hard your forks will rebound with a clunk as the rubber won’t obsorb the energy efficiently.
