Got another one for ya'll.
My front forks blew out seals in August (now my front brake doesn't work from the oil!!!).
The current tripleclamp diameters are 54mm upper, 54mm lower.
I bought a set of new shocks last summer, but... The lower tripleclamp diameter would be 57mm, and 54mm on the upper.
Does this indicate that the new (57mm lower) is an MX shock? And my old is and Enduro shock?
The 54mm lower shocks are stock from 91, as far as I know. The ones I bought, I was told, were from approx. a '96 bike.
I am currently trying to locate a 57mm lower shock. No clue on offset requirements. Would they change too?
Any thoughts???
