wow..i love xmas sales!

click here for rk005  linkage fork seal kit and rk 006 linkage fork bushing kit
 

Are the 005 and 006 kits still available thru Iron Horse?   If so, what do they want for each?  The Buy It Now price seems like a stretch, IMO.

I bought some off of them a year ago and they were $7.95 each, so yes that BIN price is a bit steep, unless they are no longer available?
Also Iron Horse do use very expensive shipping methods, certainly to the UK!
By the time I paid, shipped and imported them, you just change the $ to a £, but that's still not bad for a spares kit that in my experience can last over 10 years!

Just got a couple of each of these left now:
RK002   856 World Cup Pivot   £15.00
RK004   X Link Seals                   £8.00
RK008   4000/5500 Pivot Kit   £8.00

If any Brits/Europeans want to go in with me on another bulk purchase then let me know what you need.

no rush, but thinking ahead - if you are getting an order together put me in for x-link seals and bushes and 957 pivot kit.

cheers

Hi Colin,

I have an XPX, bought in 1997. Looking at the manual there does not seem to be any part numbers I can recognise, so I'm not sure what kits I need.

The XPX is totally original, ridden all the time & I'd like to do some maintenance on it. I'm about to order the Core spring upgrade from RDS once they wake up & turn the order facility back on.

I would like to see a list of parts, but can't find one anywhere.

So, yes, count me in for some kits, especially if you can point me in the right direction!

Many Thanks
Craig

Hi chaps, Mrs Tel spotted this today and thinks it would come in handy in the spares bin for someone .Looks like you wont be getting much more than a frame out of it though.
Cheers, Tel. ;)

FOR SALE:
Complete Vintage Girvin Vector 2 fork, spare parts to forks, and plenty of accessories!
I went way overboard and bought everything but the kitchen sink to rebuild a pair of Girvin Vector 2 forks. Then I decided just to go with a more traditional suspension fork.
Here's what's included (as seen in picture)
1) ones complete set of forks with one set of (2) new K2 p/n 13943-2H elastomers
2) several spare parts for a newer generation fork, but basically interchangeable
3) Girvin owners manual with re-build instructions
4) K2 RK 004 Rebuild kit (new)
5) K2 RK 006 Rebuild kit (new)
6) Cane Creek S2 (1 inch) used threadless headset
7) One (not 2 as shown) new extra 45mm K2 Elastomer p/n 13943-2H
8) Wheels Mfg. Head Tube Reducer Shim (adapts 1" steer tube to 1 1/8" head tube p/n HRED-1)

I've got quite a bit of money involved in this and I'm asking $125 (REDUCED PRICE) or Best Offer
Thanks CinciRider reply to RandyLines(at)hotmail(dot)com

If rapiddescentscotland.co.uk is up and running again they will sell them separately. I bought just the bottom collar off Callum a couple of months ago.

Thanks O, I was just checking to see if maybe someone in the states might have some. Shipping 'cross the pond is brutal... :(

shipping shouldn't be much for small items like that though?
