Front forks strip and rebuild, bearings replaced, etc etc Tough to say without looking at your bike, your riding style, the roads you use, your size and weight etc but Yes, it needs it. IMO. |

Shouldn't be any difference in price between Jersey and UK as there is no VAT on books. |

Well I will also have to do the 20k on the CityX soon.  Think I've got my addled mind around the workshop manual descriptions, but can anyone tell me if I will be able to compress the fork springs by hand to refit the fork caps?
