Quick question on fork

[The Drongo]

Hey MAD

 

As capricorn says, try leaving the bike upsidedown if u dont ride it too often.

 

Another trick is to place a small amount of DRY lube around the spot where the stanchion and the lowers meet, then 'cycle' the fork a few times and wipe the excess of. The FINISH LINE brand DRY lube works best.

 

Are your stanchions CHROME finish or anodised? CHROME finish tends to be worse for static friction.

 

Nice bomb proof forks though, and lighter by far than the coil spring version!

so what u do to remedy the situation MBM?

[mad bout mtb]

The bottom-out bumber had split and was wrapped around some travel spacers i had in the fork, so I just put in a new one and the problem was gone

[Capricorn]

interesting u bottom out a lot, or how u reckon the bump-stop split?
