fork

I recently read that forks require servicing on a level which sounds almost like coddling(?).
Armed with a downloaded service manual and referring to a slightly revised/reworded version from Singletracks website, I took them off and stripped them down. A weird almost globulous red gloop wept from the left leg as I removed bolts and seals. This caused slight concern as nothing I was putting back looked similar. If any of the following sounds wrong, leave a comment. Oil level on the right leg was measured from the base of the inner leg. I did this using a glass tube marked at the 105 mm level and just inserted and observed where the level sat. This needed about 85 mL of fork oil. Anyway, all reassembled and hopefully will work and not leak.





How much shit can you possibly need?

The forks, all ready to eat the cat's dinner then get back on the bike. Left these over night to see if they leak oil or air.
