Rebuild old shock or Buy New ? I have a weird Europe sold fork, the manatou Splice??? I never heard of it before seemed ok for a while but heavey and not as smooth as was my Black. Is there aninternals up grade kit I can buy or it is a design flaw that needs to go Bye bye?

I cannot afford these $400-500 dollar shocks so what do you think?

What can you afford? Also, would you rebuild it yourself? And can you find the parts?
