Suspension oil

I'm busy servicing my reba fork, does anyone know of a place in pta where I can get suspension oil? I also need to find o-rings/seals, is an lbs best for those?

I used oil from LMS (local motor bike shop)

 

The oil was 1/4 the price of the fox oil, and probably better quality.

Ok, thanks, I'll go past the motorbike shop tomorrow. I just phoned 2 lbss, one said there was no chance of getting seals from them and the other said they could order them for about R500 (o-rings and dust wiper seals) is that right!? sounds a bit expensive to me...

Find out if Johan Bornman has some, I'm going for the fork workshop in JHB sat and can bring them along. I live in Pta east.?

Also the seals he usually stock are enduro seals and last longer.

That would be awesome as I also live in pta east! I've already pm'ed Johan and he says that he is hopefully getting the seals in tomorrow. If he lets me know that he has got them I would really appreciate if you would bring back a set for me?

 

 

 

Thanks a million!

Clap Johan can we clone you so you can start an LBS ? PLEASE ! Big%20smile

 

Cloning sounds fun...are there any women involved in the process?

 

Scew the bike shop thing, lets start a microbrewery.

Het hulle al iewers raakgedrink by 'n bierproe, baie goed. Anything but the mass produced crap really.
