Looking for some help here. Was out on my ride this evening and all of a sudden my fox float 32 fork died on me. It was while it compressed the rod with the rebound flew out and out squished loads of oil all over me. What have I done and how do I fix it? I'm not the most technically minded!
Thanks as ever!
Given your not sure about what you've done i'd get in touch mojo

Out of the top of the leg? Has the top nut come undone or has sommat broken? Pics?
Yeah top of the left hand leg. Sorry picture is rubbish but this is what it like now, I found the cap and the rod had completely flown out so I stuck it back in for the purpose of not losing it. As I compress the forks the oil comes squirting out once the rod flys out again.

Blimey, how old are they? Been regularly serviced?
Had them since last march, brand new on my 2011 stumpy comp
Warranty then surely?
Can you take them apart? Not being rude just asking
Warranty then surely?
not unless two year warranty?
Ohhh, last march. Sorry, I'm a knob.
I think spesh have a two year warrantee don't they? Pretty sure mojo repaired my fubared f120s from my old stumpy well after the first year. Give your local dealer a call.
Thats a definite failure, back to the dealer.
Bang go ya forks well Bang em off to loco tuning 🙂
So is my best bet to ring spesh themselves or fox or the shop I got it from? I've moved house since I got it so it's a long way to get back to the shop I got it from!
Nearest spesh dealer to start with.
Spez will want a proof of purchase identifying you as original owner. If you can't get it, you're out of luck!
It's alright I've still got the receipt!
Be warned that their warranty for forks depends on you having them regularly serviced: 12 months or 1500km if memory serves. £90 will get them serviced (as they're due) and they'll probably fix the cause of your problem along the way.
Thanks for all the info people. I have spoken to MOJO this morning and they have confirmed its a warranty issue and to send them off to them and theyll get them sorted. They did say 2-3 week turn around time currently and im meant to be doing Gisburn Dirty Dozen 3 weeks on Saturday! 😕

Buy some forks second hand off here, then sell them on?
Yes, 'cos everyone has that sort of money just kicking around!

I can see at least one other pair of forks in the photo above.

Dont know how the girlfriend would feel about me taking her forks, and dont know how a stumpjumper fsr would ride with a 100mm womens specific fork on the front!Could be interesting!
it's your fault for only having one bike 😉

Not as interesting as trying to wheelie all the way round Gisburn! 😉
Yeah top of the left hand leg
That's got to be the rightest looking left hand leg I've ever seen.
