This was posted on another forum in response to a query after Proflex elastomers:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Hi,

Did you sort out the elastomer problem on your proflex 455?

I have lots of Proflex parts still in stock, Girvin Flexstems, Girvin Vector I and Vector II suspension forks, frame and fork parts from 1992-1997 models.

My company distributed Proflex branded bicycles from 1993 till 1997.

Regards,
Nuno

Do you think the elastomers are any good? The seal kits would come in handy.
