Who's the best/economical to send a set of forks for a spring clean/service? Fox 29RL, from a couple of years back, bourght on a second hand bike, little leak from left leg, not sure of service history, don't want to start poking around too much myself.

Quite a bit is the cost of shipping to and from so if you have an LBS that can do them or your in south wales near to Mojo or LOCO then take them there. Otherwise it is really easy to change the seals and fill up with new oil. There are dozens of guides on the net and youtube.

in central scotlandshire, not sure if any LBS's are good with Fox. I've had Rockshock until now, and understand Fox need a wiper service every 20mins, so need to start thinking about self help soon....

If you're central Scotland, try Flying Fox Bikes in Alva. They've got a couple of good spanner monkeys who could at least have a look. They deal with mine, anyway.

Flotec in Edinburgh are good and reasonable, I used them last year to do my RS Sids and they came back better than they'd ever been.

You can drop off and pick up if that suits and I had mine back within a couple of days.
