I have a bit of an ongoing issue with my '07 Lyrik U-turn coil. Basically, from mid-stroke (ahem) onwards it feels harder and more sticktiony than it should.
I've always thought it was down to dirt in the seals/lack of lube etc... so I have taken the lowers off several times and thoroughly cleaned out the insides.
I have tried both
1) packing the seals with grease
2) (more recently) putting a bit of fork oil in each slider
, before refitting.
The grease option has worked well (i.e. feeling very plush for a short while), but with very short lived results. The oil option which I have recently tried for the first time, does not seem to have improved matters at all.
I am convinced that the spring is the right one for my weight, as the forks felt perfect when new, AND are perfect for a short while when serviced as above.
Do any Lyrik owners on here have a tried and tested solution to the above conundrum? I must admit that I can't find the instruction manual that should have come with the forks. Should I be looking online?
Thanks in advance, people
Ash
