  1. I have had the unfortunate experience of sending my bike in to service the suspension , front , rear and dropper post as the bike is 6 months old and don't want to affect the warranties after my mate had to fork out 6K to repair his fork after 18 months as he never serviced it and his warranties were lost. In the past I have always sent my bikes to Stoke for suspension works for services and received the bike back within 2 days but generally the next day and it was always done brilliantly and their team magically made the forks etc feel even better than new. Thanks guys When I dropped my bike on Sat i was advised it would be ready on Tuesday . After calling bike shop on Wed They said Thursday maybe latest Friday . When I Called them today on Friday they said fork has gone to Omnico and can take up to 3 weeks. Is this normal ? Have other Hubbers experienced the same crap with their Fox products ? 3 Weeks is really gonna mess up fitness levels Luckily my sons bike will go to Droo next month for its service
  2. Have you tried to loosen caliper , pull brakes and tighten while holding brakes . I changed mine last week . Was still rubbing a bit as if disc was warped but was sorted after a good ride Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  8. I had the same issue and it was caused by alignment of derailleur , mine happened in easiest gear up serious climbs , I also turned on clutch , not sure if it assisted to solve the issue Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
