  1. Peterb and lineaway,, Thanks for the advice. Lineaway, u make it sound like it's fairly straightforward, an injection of confidence.. Then peterb, u give me a get out of jail free card with leaving the innards intact and just changing the tubes. This sounds really tempting, but it goes against my grain to disassemble them and not check all the innards - possibly never stripped down again.. So, I'm gonna combine your contributions, whack my tube into each yolk hole, then in the depths of winter strip them down and have a good look inside. So yous have pretty much solved my quandary. Turbofurball,, 'christmas is coming, the goose is getting flat..' Cheers folks..
  2. Hmmm, turbofurball. I'm suspicious, have u had a vision of my shed and how I work? Right down to the sawdust. Creepy.. I don't have the sense to farm the job out😬🙄, I have no shame tho, so I should b good.. People have had a limited amount of advice on the international spouse Vs bike match, not a murmer offered about the fork spares question!🤔 Maybe changing the question to who's the best crowd to phone for advice and good stock of spares? Less query based distractions.
  3. 🤣 that damn Santa, up to his tricks again.. it could happen to me now I hav the proof that it happened to u. Far safer u being on land than herself being out at sea. Very selfless of u..
  4. Hello all First post and it's gonna be a simple question, hopefully with a cheap answer. Both my forks have huge chunks chewed out of the chrome. I've splashed on 2 new stanchions, but before I take them apart I want to be ready to put them back together. Trialling season is rolling on.. Never been inside forks before, should be able to manage tho with all the info out there. Just need to know what weight oil ( a svelte 12stone on an Ossa 280i), and what parts should be replaced. Keen on giving them a proper service while I'm in the guts of them. Thanks in advance for the abundant knowledge I hope will be thrown my direction.. 🙂 As a footnote, has anyone posed the ultimate question : HOW DO YOU CONVINCE YOUR DEAREST OF THE COMPLETE AND ABSOLUTE NECESSITY OF THE EXISTANCE (AND EXPENSE) OF YOUR BIKE? Speaking as someone who's been busted for buying a crf450 on the sly🙈🤭.. and for the entire trialling community, a conundrum worth addressing.
