Even on bone stock forks, you can add 2-2.5cm of heavy (30wt) oil (on top of the stock 10wt) and like 3cm spacers and have a transformed bike with a much better front end.
Sorry to be a thicko but I've got a question, if I put the 30w oil on top of the 10 w oil do I need the spacer as well or is that instead of?
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most
