So after riding this past weekend, it was pointed out to me that there was some crud on my Fox 36 Talas stanctions. The good news is it wiped right off, but it was clearly something other than dirt. My analysis leads me to believe that the seals or wipers had been crudded up and were wearing against the stanctions. Therefore it is time to replace them.
My initial thought was the Enduro Seal kit for 2 reasons.
1) I had always heard good things about them
2) They are blue and my carbon bike is accented with blue bits, so you know it would look cool.
However I called my trusty LBS to ask if they had the ability and what it would cost me to do the seal swap. During that conversation the mechanic who I think highly of, recommended staying away from the Enduro seals and just sticking with the Fox replacement kit.
The price difference of the kits is relatively nominal $1-5 difference.
So I was wondering what if any experience folks had here with Enduro vs the Fox kits? If it makes a difference my 36 is Kashima coated.
Thanks in advance.
