SAFETY BRIEFING.

  • Wear a helmet. Despite recent advances in medical science, brains still cannot be mended nor replaced.
  • Wear gloves or mitts. Hands often hit the ground first. Cuts and grazes invite infection and a hospital visit.
  • Wear eye protection, it only takes a twig or thorn to lose an eye. Crud catchers are a good idea in mucky weather.
  • When downhilling, for your own protection, allow plenty of space behind the rider in front.
  • Bring a bare minimum emergency tool kit and a spare inner tube.
  • Breakdowns are a bore. Plan not to have any by ensuring your bike is in perfect working order.
  • Punctures are also tedious. You can minimise them by fitting latex tubes, slime tubes or running tubeless tyres.
  • Don't ride too close to the person in front. If they crash into a badger, you'll need time to swerve.

Servicing rockshox forks

My rockshox forks are in desparate need of a service after a few too many years of abuse. Does anyone know the best place to get them done? Is it best just to post them off myself rather than take them to a bike shop? Cheers, Ali

Re: Servicing rockshox forks

TF tuned come highly recommended.

Re: Servicing rockshox forks

Yep, I've used TF tuned and can recommend them... in fact, need to get mine sent off for a service as well.

Hi Ali,

I've not used TF Tuned, but I've used Pace and they've been fine. They service most fork types.

SRAM only offer servicing to the trade, not punters.

Check prices - they're not far different - and don't forget carriage costs, which can be quite high.

Cheers

Tom
