Don't mean to hijack thread but I just wanted to ask: Is my rebound dying? Today for a few minutes my fork would compress and then would spring back up with such a force it'd make a pretty big noise, sort of like the opposite of bottoming out (felt like a freakin' pogo stick on speed), if you catch my drift. After a few minutes this went away but it left me slightly worrying. I don't notice much of a decrease in performance, seals are OK, fork is not leaking oil.
