when have you had too much to drink?

[matt24777]

got a set of RSTs Karma from Likeclockwork today (she'd had them lying around in a mates bikeshop for years), stipped them and found the elastomers wrapped up in tape.... bit odd.


anyway carried on stripping and cleaning ans discovered to my amusement that they were not elastomers.....

They were CORKS!

so the answer based on todays discoveries is 6 bottles of wine! :facepalm:

So the question is ... did the forks work with the corks? (try saying that 10 times ...)

A typical case of 'what were you thinking!'

Or 'What were you drinking'....

By the time Matt got them today they were seized solid, but when I had them they went up and down quite well....I fancied the rebound was a bit....slow though...felt a bit wooden... :facepalm:

Hmm, the idea seems good to me, corks inside a section of old inner tube maybe with penny washers top and bottom. I may try it on some old forks of mine.

That sounds like a cheap excuse to lay into a half-dozen bottles to me. Do let me know if you need any assistance at all

Would white give a faster rebound than red? :|

some pre-war cars used wooden plates clamped together for dampers

I wonder how some of those newfangled plastic corks would work?
