Stanchion replacement - carbon crown?

[ishaw]

I've got a set of rock shox world cup forks that I initially bought for spare parts but wondering if they can be repaired. Does anyone know if it is possible to de-bond the stanchion from the carbon CSU and bond a replacement in?

Seems possible in theory, but can it be done and is it a good or bad idea? I would want to get someone who knows what they are doing to undertake the work.

Any thoughts?

I'd contact a suspension specialist. And see if they can do it. I know they can replace stanchions, and crowns. Never seen carbon ones.

heres a couple to try.

Re:

Thanks. I've tried one of those mentioned and they only do alloy crowns. I'll try the other two.

No dice on the other two. Looks like I have some spares, or I could make a short travel retro did from them, as I have some new v lowers.
