Rene EFE Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 Rebuilt the frontend in my EF start of this year with aftermarket seals. Now, after about 2k miles max, it's sprung a serious leak, both at once. I'll be rebuilding it again with proper seals (SKF green race jobbies) but might also do some work to the sanctions themselves; either recroming, DLC or Ti-Nitrid. But, there's aftermarket sanctions that would save me this headache; are there decent ones out there, others to avoid or should I just refurb the 20yr old originals? Quote
Pedda Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 In the past I got me some stanchions from Wilbers, standard chrome ones, only 30mm longer than normal to rise the front end. never hat any issues whatsoever. Quote
Ted M Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 I have used these people in the past http://www.pittedforks.co.uk/index.php They did a good job, collected and delivered them by courier all included in the price. it worked out cheaper than after market stanchions. Just stripped the forks as far as I could and they did the rest. Quote

Good quality and just over £100 eCh tube not badly priced. Just my view as rechromed are same price if not more. Quote
