fork seal mate - if you tighten the spindle up with no spacers it pulls the forks inwards and deforms the seal

How the hell did they loose the spacer in the first place. I would be fuming & press for a full refund & repair/replace. BTW what has happened to the Ronayers microfiche parts list the following link is failing??

Anybody got a new link??

I noticed this the other day. Basically what they have done know is that they require you to register with them to view the fiche. I guess they can start sending commercial spam then. :thumbdown:
