Thanks guys. I removed all o-rings with a toothpick. The original sealhead external o-ring had visible damage and I replaced that. Didn't notice any damage to internal one.
Will get that bigger o-ring on monday from a local shop and give it a shot. There are several materials for o-rings any...
Hi guys.
I have stripped down my old Boxxer Race forks, replaced the wipers, and oil seals. I stripped most of it down and also ordered replacement o-rings.
Everything is back together OK however I noticed that on the right (rebound and compression) side the new oil leaks past the rebound...
Oh man. I threw the shock pump in recycle bin last night. Just saw this and dump truck already took it away this morning... I don't think I will ever get over this... :doh::dread::frown-new:
Hey guys
I have a shock pump just like this Raleigh. The rubber hose has developed a leak or crack just behind base of the connector/valve head.
Anyone know where to get a replacement hose or is it time to buy a new one. Already tried ebay "replacement shock pump hose" no luck..?
Hi guys,
Looking for recommendation for a good quality bearing puller to add to my inventory.
Something that can handle most of the bearings we typically use.
Cheers
Hey guys,
Just giving you all the heads up that I have got my tickets over to Vancouver and will be departing Aus on 24 July!
Staying there for over 2 months, so should be pretty siiiiiiiiiiiick!
Will definitely have to make a Rotorburn Whistler 2011 facebook group or something to make...
Thanks so much man! I contacted them and they don't take reservations (first come first served basis) but they said they usually have room for people. Looks like I will be heading straight there.
Now just to finalise flights, hah.
Haha, yes I am aware of bears :|
I haven't booked anything, but the aim is to stay there for as long as possible for as cheap as possible.
Zoidberg where can i get this staff housing you speak of?
I'm all for going half-half with someone on a room etc.
Hi all,
I haven't read the entire thread yet, but let me register my interest for Whistler 2011! :D
I am looking at staying 2-2.5 months in Whistler (is that too long :P?). Around July 29-October 10 when the bikepark closes. Camping the whole time at Whistler Riverside RV resort? or...
Hey all, I'm still in Morley (north of river).
I went to goatfarm last weekend with my cousin and they even have a sign up there now saying it's a mountain bike park.. sweet!
Stooge would love to catch up with you sometime man.. LONG LONG time no see, haha
Thanks for the very helpful advice everyone.
Picked up the bike a few days ago - I ended up going with the Avanti Giro.
The bike shop also gave me 460 bucks of retail stuff (of my choice) in store for free with the bike so I was pretty happy with that. For the 460 I got shoes and cleats...
Thanks for the very helpful replies everyone.
Looks like the 105 componentry on the bikes and the stock wheelsets in my price range will be more than adequate.
Regarding the knicks which would you reccomend? Do I need them if I am riding 40km+ each day on the road bike?
I will also be riding...
Hey guys,
Thanks for the tips regarding purchase. I have had a look at quokka etc and at this stage I think I would probably just get a brand new bike.
Since my last post I have test ridden a few bikes (only for very short distances of course). These are
- GT Series 3 (also had a Series 2...
Hi everyone
I would like to start riding a bike to work every day. However, it is much too difficult on my Norco A-Line :P
I am about 170cm and 80kg. The daily ride to work is roughly 20km each way. So 40km per day.
I can do the trip on my father's crappy Kmart 'mountainbike' bike in 1...
Hey dudes,
I am in the northern suburbs and would be happy to help out with building dirt jumps almost anywhere around Perth. Bit hard to find good soil though as essentially all of the coastal plain is sand! :mad:
Weekends are best for me by the way!
Let me know! :D
Rexy, that is the bomb bro! :D
Should head out for a ride sometime dude! Like the good old days :D
Can't make it to the downhill round this weekend (not that I could race anyways). Gonna head to goatfarm with a few mates.
Enjoy it mate!
