Just a small post to clear up some TECHNICAL DETAILS FOR MTB DUMMIES 101: FORK: Large two pronged [forked !!] object found between FRONT wheel and the NUT that holds the Handle Bar. (Unless you ride a Cannondale - in which case one whole side is missing) Can be found on both FULL SUS and HARDTAIL MTB species. SHOCK: A small tube shaped object connecting the bum end [seat] of the bike to the REAR wheel area. Making for more comfortable 75+ km rides. NOT found on HARDTAIL MTB species. Hope that clears up the issue and makes for more accurate SEARCH options. PS: For those who have never ridden a LEFTIE - having only a single 'prong' to your FORK makes it really difficult to fix a front tyre flat - STAY AWAY ! MORE on UPPERS, LOWERS and STANCHIONS to follow.
