Q-Bikes on ebay – although their price will put the cost of a bag of 20 into perspective !

As the bulk bags usually work out less than a £1 for each foam ring I normally change them at each (RockShox) lower service rather than ‘clean’ the old ones.

A LOT less than £1…. and since I’m a big believer in just keeping forks clean inside I tend to pull apart often .. clean then inspect seals and dust seals and stick in new foam rings… as i also buy 20x crush washers at once this costs me a few cc of lowers oil and a few pence in crush washers and foam rings

A LOT less than £1 ???

90p isn’t

Maybe cheaper somewhere else ?

But I like your prudency with crush washers! I tend to do those on an annual / 200 hour service as the manufacturers advice changed….will probably die soon 😉

@iamnobody

Last lot were bought washers and retainers separate…. (just worked out that way)

ebay outdooroutlet £15 for 50 retainers but now in pairs only ??? (I always find this sort of thing tends to be ephemeral and you need to search each time)
Now quick look shows

The washers I’d bought earlier … can’t see immediately but probably as easy to just search
Found these quickly…might not be the best price but …
