February 16, 200719 yr Author thanks ive had the fork done now and was out on it over the weekend and just looked yesterday (thur 15th feb) and noticed they are leaking u have any idea wot could be wrong. cheers
February 16, 200719 yr There are fork seals and there are fork seals I bought some from Millers for the Ossa fork legs in my B40. He supplies two single lip seals per leg. The stantions are unmarked but the seals leaked almost straight away. Had the same problem with seals form a bearing supplier which is where Millers seals seem to originate. Saw some two lip seals on Flea bay and thought give it a go. They are great. Proper two lip seals. The lips seem longer and the rubber seems softer. At the end of the day they work. dont know and i go along with Barrys suggestion above as a first measure but as i said before there are seals and there are seals.
February 26, 200719 yr Are you sure you have the seals tapped down far enough and the clip firmly seated in place right the way around the inside of the fork leg? A custom made tool may help.
