...this top end hard tail sure looks new... http://img1.classistatic.com/cps/kj/110302/547r1/1340hhb_19.jpeg

They all seem fit enough and they drink beer. Who are you to disagree? http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_T5l4T1v6mz4/SggcLH3_nhI/AAAAAAAACOs/W4x0JjX_Z1o/s400/75+Sexy+Beer+Babes.jpg http://lh5.ggpht.com/_66pMLC9-xuE/Srj5jUlPKcI/AAAAAAAAHXw/2AVIXCmX3YU/okt11.jpg

When you are gunning for 236th place, like myself, that is the only way to carbo load before and after a race.

Went into Solomons about 2 weeks ago. They had Camelbak MULE's for R649 which is a mighty good price. I rarely go to other bike shops any more. Depending on what I'm looking for, I usually phone Solomons to get a good price, then FPC to get a market related price. Finally I hit the the websites. For small items and consumables I just go to Solomons.

Hi Sean, thanks for your posts. Your insightful posts will definitely be my top posts of the year.

Jeez, now that is good craftsmanship.

But of course! Snakes and spadin'.

No need to get a grease gun. Look at the White Lightning range of grease. They have one that comes in a tube and has a nipple of about 30mm long. Can grease bearing races with it and get it into those hard to reach places. They sell them at Solomons. http://i2.avlws.com/157/m56623.png Get one of these for those stubborn nuts or if you want to modify your top tube to look like a Lynskey's http://www.psfk.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/philly-tool-library.jpg

Cant you maybe print it as a PDF and try again? Not a pc fundi though... Cant blame a guy for trying.

Damn.... You guys already got me with blue waffle and special fried rice. Should I, shouldn't I?

Please, please, please. No, I said NOOO! Pictures on couch for this thread....

Mine, not really a scratch but wear. Might be some useful info 'ere: https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/99635-fox-fork-stanchion-wear/page__p__1345625__fromsearch__1?do=findComment&comment=1345625

Crazy kid.

..or perhaps the saddest day ever thread...?

Was it loop race?

Was thinking the same thing!

Schaweet!

Thanks all!

Dont blame the Enduro seals, blame a lack of maintenance. <quietly raises hand> Guilty! Thanks!

Dude, be careful. I suspect that you might be imploding...

Cruds, then I should look for something along the lines of a modded Masser Furgesson spring loaded seat...

Thanks. Very valid points although I suspect that it is easier to move one ball around and get comfy than two.

Yup, only if you are a 65kay lighty with a bony arse . I need something more, uuuhm ,luxurious for my derrière...

Thanks The Drongo, so you would say that an early b-day/late Christmas prezzy in the form of a new fork would be the only viable option. I heard it costs upward of R2k to replace a stanchion since it is a press fit assembly (and most probably because it is a single use run till breakdown piece of equipment). Would you also recommend that I use OEM seals next time round?

...thought it might be something to do with the seals. Had Fox seals on them initially. They replaced them with the Enduro's last year sometime and then the excessive wear started - they said it was cheaper than the OEM seals and that the elongated lip keeps gunk out much better...
