I just broke my mates Fox 36's. Now I need to try and fix on them. Fingers crossed I can get the spare part and fit it myself.

Feeling like a right Muppet now. Luckily I was able to lend him the pikes off my ht.

No not Sams my mate Martin. It was the talas base stud. I just overtightened it in a rush. The thing didn't even feel particularly tight to be honest.

This was the point at which I bought a torque wrench.

Pre-2010 fork? If so, bend over as you're going to have to "upgrade"

Yep its a 2008. Just spoke to Mojo and they don't do the Talas 2 (which she thinks it is) anymore so will have to upgrade to the Talas 3. Lucky him.

Hopefully they will just send me the cartridge rather than fleece me for a whole service too.

The number of people who convert their 36's from TALAS > FLOAT there should be loads of TALAS internals floating around if you put up a wanted ad.
