Not-so -happy bunny here.
Bought a set of lovely Fox f100rls last week and intitially I was very happy. Definate improvement on my MX comps
Anywhoo, stripped to do a seal/ oil change and found to my horror that below the surface the LH (air side) stantion is worn beyond repair and the PTFE liner on the guide has broken away.
The stripdown also revealed nasty cloudy looking oil and a large amount of oil ABOVE the air spring seal (should only be a bit of float fluid there)
I have no quarrel with the vendor as he seems genuine enough with good FB.
(Although worryingly his LBS supposedly “serviced” these forks)
So the bottom line is that I need new uppers and a set of bushes. I have the kit to do this myself but the next challenge is going to be to get hold of the spares for any kind of good money!
Moral of the story; DONT BUY FORKS BLIND!
