Description

Details

Kit containing all the essentials for servicing your 28.6 mm stanchioned Manitou semi-bath forks (Skareb & Sliver forks).

Additional Information
Fork Seal Kit

Enduro Manitou 28.6 mm Fork Seal Kit includes 2 inner oil seals and 2 dust seals/wipers.

Fork Oil

250 cc of Motorex 2.5 wt fork oil.

Bushing Lubricant

Motorex Supergliss 100k is an extra thick and slippery lubricating oil designed to cling to vertical surfaces.
Note: In below freezing conditions Supergliss can thicken up too much and push past wiper seals.  Use Polar Lube for very cold conditions.

Motorex Supergliss 68k is a slightly thinner alternative to Supergliss 100k. Note: In below freezing conditions Supergliss can thicken up too much and push past wiper seals.  Use Polar Lube for very cold conditions.

Motorex Fully Synthetic Lubricating Oil works very well as a bushing lubricant for suspension fork lower legs.  It is the best all-round performer, with Supergliss better in the warm (10°C and above) and Polar Lube Oil better in the cold (0°C and below).

Motorex Polar Lube Oil
is ideal for cold conditions.  At 0°C it is 45% thinner than our normal Motorex Fully Synthetic and almost 60% thinner than Supergliss.

Assembly Grease Slickoleum is a premium assembly lubricant specially formulated by Arlo Englund, the inventor of Slick Honey. This grease is perfect for lubricating seals and bushings while rebuilding forks. 5 g sachet is usually sufficient for a single fork service.
Oil Syringes

Medical grade syringes available with or without the annoying questions the chemists always ask. Syringes only, no needles. Supplied with 10 cm clear tube for oil pickup (other tube lengths available on request).

Please note that some fluids (particularly brake fluids) can attack the plastic and rubber in these syringes so they can have a limited life. We strongly recommend using different syringes for brakes and forks. Brake fluid is not good for your forks and fork oil is not good for your brakes.
