Default Fox Seals..
Anyone know where to get the full seal kit the cheapest. One of my LBS's has a set, but I think the price is too steep.

My fork... 32 Talas RLC
Any assistance is much appreciated.

I would be willing to bet that the seals are $15 bucks anywhere that stocks them.

We have plenty in stock at The Path.

$30..
I know its not a lot of cash, but when they are charging double of what I could be paying its not right.
Thanks for your responses.
I keep hearing great things about the Path, but have never been there, maybe a drive up is in order.

BW price matches. Call 'em on it and they'll meet the $15 price. Everyplace I looked online has them for $15 too.

Go to the Path, say hello, check out bike stuff, and get your seals!! DONE..
If they have Enduro seals in stock I would get those instead. They are tight when you first install them so the fork feels weird for a few hours of riding. But after they break in they last way longer than stock seals. Also since I started using them the oil in the forks stays clean inbetween rebuilds(yes I pay attention to this)...

I would recommend the Enduro seals as well. I've ran them on a few of my forks and they worked really well.

I don't know who you talked to, but I just talked to Tom at Bicycle Warehouse and the kit is $20, not $30. Shipping or gas up to Tustin will cost you the extra $5. I'm sure Tom would even price match down to $15 if you asked him.

Bicycle Warehouse isn't the only lbs to me, there are several. And I wasn't referring to them.

Any special tools required. The last fork I worked on was a Judy from the late '90s

As the recomendation for the Enduro Seals sounds like the way for me to go...do you guys have them in stock?
