  1. Check with out Web Cyclery they are out of Bend Oregon. I purchased a few bikes from them over the years and they are the top notch when it comes to trials pedal bikes. The have a good web site and carry everything you could ever need. They might even have a used bike or atleast give you leads on who may have one for sale.
  2. I contacted MavTV asking them if they have any plans on putting any of there shows on the website. I got a reply stateting that they are looking into but nothing in the near future. Has/did anybody get to watch the Nebraska event that aired this last week and how was it?
  3. took 05 front fork apart according to ryp process but the seal and the centering bushings stayed in the lower part of the fork???they act like they are jambed in place. and yes the clip was removed. any sugestions as how to get thosebushings and seal out of the lower part as know the tefflon is junk. I think I found why the forks are sticky. help

    Sticky Forks

    Thanks for the responses....We drained the oil and are finding metal shavings in the drain oil..also finding metal shavings in the and around the top caps. Any body got clues for the metal shavings. Also looks as if the right fork leg was low on oil..maybe filled with about 250cc. Also with the caps, oil and spings out the the action of the tube still seems to catch near the bottom of the stroke.. any ideas guys?

    Sticky Forks

    Need help with my friends 05 sherco 2.9. The front forks do not have a plush cushion feel to them. There is zero sag when mounting the bike, acts as if its (forks)locked up. With body weight force we can get the forks to compress and rebound but just does not feel anywheres near as nice as my 06 sherco. I will list the things we have tried and if you know of anything else please let me know. 1. loosened up all pitch bolts and axle and checked for twist in the legs. This also includes the fork fender brace. 2. compressed the forks and cracked the top cap to see if air comes out .. which there was. The forks seals/dust covers on the slide tubes look brand new..not cracked at all. Should our next step be change the shock oil? Do a full blown fork rebuild? My friend just purchased the bike and it looks as if the previous never did any type of maintinance.
