Probably a good idea only to oil/cycle your forks and clean cassettte/chain only after each ride.

The tech at Mojo said this is something that Fox had been surprised about; the amount of warranty claims on creaking CSU in the UK market compared to other international markets.

I'm sure there was a thing in Privateer where the Fox 'destruction tester' was saying UK riders are very hard on equipment.

Why this should be a shock when we live in a country with a mild, damp climate, where the choice is often riding in adverse (but not lethally adverse) weather with consequent mud, or not riding at all... Mind you, I can't believe eg. SW Canada is any different.

Not really hora.

I had 150mm revs on the five spot and didn't feel them flexing at all.

@ratherbeintobago

Good friend of mine working for shimano (not the UK dist. Madison) said they were surprised by the volume of disc brake pads and disc brakes sold into the UK market.

Something about the enthusiasm for riding all year round in all weathers ๐Ÿ˜‰
