I need to get my Reba's serviced.
Should I go ChainReactionCycles or TFT Tuning?
Not sure CRC are servicing atm, give em a call.
flooks!? sent a pair of boxxers to him a few years back to get black box tuned and softer springs fitted. got em back couldn't get full travel, give him a call, bought another spring. . . still too hard. checked oil level and right leg was over filled by 50ml+!! got my mom to service them and they were sweet as;-) I'll never go to tf again. 120quid wasted
flook me once, shame on you. . .

Everybody makes mistakes. Did you tell him that they weren't working correctly upon return and allow him to rectify the situation?
I've had such good service, free advice, etc from TF, I wouldn't think twice about recommending them.
My REBAs need servicing, going to do it myself, not overly difficult, but definitely going to send my Fox forks to TFtuned in the near future. Think about it, who would you rather have fiddling with your internals, a business dedicated to this pursuit or one that is a very successful internet seller that does a bit of maintenance on the side.
TBH I just need to remove the spacer to get 100mm travel.
TFTuned are charging £60.
CRC £40.
I've asked this before, but should I just do it myself?
My dilemma is I've got a 140mile endurance race in under 2 weeks so want my forks tobe tip top.
Me twitting around with a Woolworths socket set and some castrol fork oil is just going to be a diaster I know it.
But £60 for a spacer removal Jeeeezzzz!
If in doubt don't bother. But if you want a go then I wrote the following guide a while ago when I did my 426 coil-spring Pikes. Maybe that would help a bit.

I did the Reba travel adjust thing myself recently.Had a slight issue with the air seal,but that was down to me being a tight arse,and not wanting to spend £24 on the air seal kit from TFT.So i ended up doing them twice,but it was so easy it seems, daft not to give it a go.Second time,with the new o rings fitted,and new oil and they
d be happy for them to do it.
Worth mentioning,that the TFT service includes both the air seal kit and the stanchion seal kit,which would cost you,over £50 to buy yourself.Plus factor in the cost of sockets,15wt oil,a rubber faced mallet,etc that you may not have or be able to borrow.........
Just a heads up to anyone interested.
Sent them to TFTuned.
£40 job done.
Very helpful folk there.
Highly recommended.
