where would champagne corks fit into your scale?

Useless, totally out of control rebound, no damping whatsoever - only good for knobbling mates' bikes the night before a race or the kind of rider who has £3k of 8" bounce for the canal towpath.

Whatever you do, don't use the foam corks!

on a slightly more serious note.... I've stripped and combined the best bits from the set of forks I bought from Coomber with the set LikeClockwork Karma'd me.

Results below




Parts were as follows
From Coombers set: Steerer, adjuster knobs, elastomers , internal air pistons with O rings & brace
From LikeClockworks set: Crown, Stanchions, Steel springs(no corks) , some internal plastic fittings & lower legs

I also fitted alternative seals as I couldn't find any replacement items. I've used these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190837530369? ... 1497.l2649 seem good at the point of fitting, will see how they last.

Wow!! :shock:

Not bad at all, glad the bits came in useful after all that! I would imagine they'll be a good set of forks, now they're assembled correctly....
