Another update on my fork tubes,

Finally, the guy at the chrome shop said that the chrome was to thin to be "rechromed".

I didn't want to put new tube in there, to expensive for the moment.

So I went to a bike shop and the fine sanded the tubes. They came out great...

We put new everything in there, oil seals, dust seals, inner and outer bushings. After two weeks and almost 1 000 km, nothing is coming out of there. Just have to figure out what to do to get my fork work properly with the race tech springs and valves.

Hope this will conclude my leaking fork for a long while...
