For a correct assembly of the Fork seal kit for mountain bike applications, SKF recommends:- to clean and remove all lubricant residual from the seal seat prior to the assembly of the seal- to not lube the external rubber press fit surface of the seal with oil, grease or other substances.
In the realm of modern mountain biking, a component often overlooked yet critical is the humble fork wiper. Despite its small size, it plays a pivotal role in shaping your suspension experience and requires more frequent replacement than commonly realized. Riders often push their forks to the limit by neglecting wiper and lubricating bath oil changes, impacting both performance and longevity. While fork manufacturers have made strides in their seal systems, SKF introduces a range of aftermarket seals meticulously tuned to minimize friction, elevate suspension feel, and extend fork life. SKF seals excel in sealing out water and dirt, ensuring cleaner lubrication oil throughout the seal's lifespan.
