Mine where leaking, now there ok !!!!!!

If you can't be bothered to change seals or it's a really minor weep then a trick that sometimes works is to take a thin piece of old OHP acetate, cut a pencil type shape and feed the 'sharp' end up under the seal, once under the seal run it all the way around the fork leg - pullling it out as you go.

At the moment all 3 are fairly minor weeps but I guess they'll just get worse and worse (unless I get lucky like Gaz).

It's my own fault (is it? ed.) because none of them are getting enough use at the moment and it's lack of use that causes the seals to leak (so I'm told).
