Now I'm really having trouble trying to like or say good things about rockshox and the new boxxer team.
As some of you can remember I broke my lowers last Saturday: http://www.ridemonkey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=220110
I sent the fork on Monday and got it back from the Swiss distributor this morning. They replaced the lowers and said everything else was fine. Well it looked fine until I try to set it up the way it was before. My rebound dial doesn't do nothing and you can spin it to infinity. Before I sent it, it was ok. I'm sure about this because I wrote down my setup. Then on the same level of WRONG: the new lowers are bent or the axle holes are misaligned because I had to use a hammer to get it in. It wasn't my axle because I tried a brand new axle and it was the same. And I'm not talking about just tapping the axle to get it in....I mean hammering the damn thing with force. Now I would just return the fork back to the distributor today but tomorrow I have the seeding run for the Swiss national champs and the final is on Saturday. I'm stuck with a fork without rebound damping adjustments and a stuck axle.
I want a brand new fork so I can sell it and get something better...
