The fork was serviced two month ago by my LBS. The shop was certified by Rockshox. They replaced the wiper and seal, but the guy told me the fork needs to be sent to Rockshox for service if I would like to have all bushings replaced. I have no idea about maintain a suspension fork, so I had to take what he told me.

Why are the new fork so stiff? Would that defeat the purpose to have a full suspension? The suspension fork supposed to absorb all the bumps and make a ride as smooth as possible.
