Cos the north america shop seems to have lots in, but £15 postage is a bit steep..
I basically want a few 10mm travel adjust spacers, and a softer -ve spring..
I wonder if anyone could 3d print a few spacers??!!!
Or is there anywhere in the UK selling SR stuff??

Which fork is this for DrP? I have the softer negative spring for the Aion which I don't need. PM me if you're interested.
Thanks all - i called Greyville but no spares that I need till late August.. and the Polish shop was a similar price to the US one, and harder to look through..
It's the Aion (35mm E bike one) that I have.. thanks for the offer, but alas, order already made - was only about £6 for the spring, and postage was the same!
Will see if these forks are an upgrade on teh Recon RL on teh Ebike currently

A bit late now but I'll post anyway incase anyone else is interested.
I emailed Suntour Europe a couple of weeks back, who told me to contact Greyville. A guy named Pete emailed me from Greyville and was really helpful. He posted a negative spring to me £10 +£2 p+p, the spacers weren't in stock but they were due to get some in a week or so.
I presume these are the Suntour Aion forks CRC were selling cheap? If so IMHO they're a bit nicer than the Recon RL I had, they dive less under braking and seem to track the ground better.
I'd still like to get some travel reducing spacers for mine.
They ARE the CRC ones!
I've just emailed SR Suntour USA to see if I can add a few more spacers to my order for you drewd...
IF they haven't packed/shipped it yet, how many would you want?

Oh, that's very kind of you. I'd like two please if you're able to add to your order.
I bought mine in the same offer and I'm very pleased with them for what they cost.
How much do you weigh? I'm 80kg and I tried the soft negative spring and it made the fork worse for me in every way so it only stayed in for one ride. Probably worth it if you're sub 70kg though.
drew... will add 2 if I can!
these forks are for the e bike, which is for my GF and son... they both weigh less than 50kg... my son WAAAY less, so reckon the soft spring will be ace!
DrP
Cheers DrP. If you're able to add them to your order drop me a PM and I'll forward the money to you.
Re weight, I'm sub 60kg and it's made the fork better for my weight. With the medium negative spring the fork wasn't returning to full travel when the positive chamber was pressurised to give me 25% sag. It's returning to full travel now, responds well enough on the trail and isn't bottoming out.
