I have had my Rockshox recon 351 solo air forks for nearly 18 months. The other day I noticed that the damping on my forks was gone and they clunked as the legs extended. There is no play in the forks, there are no scratches and I'm no 'extreme' rider.
I have never had them serviced and was astonished to find that you're looking at £85 just for a service (I could MOT my car for two years for that price).
My LBS recons the oil parts need replacing – which could apparently cost upto £200, including service.
There is a seal kit available from some shops for about £22 and I'm an OK mechanic – can anyone diagnose my fork problem and could the seal kit help!
Please help!
If I have to pay £200 to fix this…well I'll probalby sell up and ride my road bike more; annual fork service £0.
