shock o-rings... where to get them?
Morning!
I need to replace the seals on some big-bore shocks and was wondering whether there is a source of o-rings that doesn't involve buying the kit TU0250-8? The kit seems strange in that it only has 4 of 9x1 o-rings, when the manual says you need 8 of them?? Any advice? Thank you |

I aways found Eriks to be very good but you need to know the size and material.

I use these as the kit o-rings swell considerably making the shock action a bit stiff.

I ended up buying the black orings from here https://www.polymax.co.uk/o-rings/.
I couldn't find a sensible source for the 2.8*1.9 silicone rings so went for the team c ones which I found as part T01035. |

I recently tested byt taking 3 different brands, measuring them, then sticking them in silicone oil for a week and measuring again. Only one brand stayed the same size. One of the 3 had massively swollen. When they swell, they put pressure on the shock shaft and make the suspension stiffer.
