Been some help sourcing a part

Hi All, I just bought a 2009 Trek 7300 last night with the Bontrager SPA integrated shock in the fork. The recall has been performed. My question is, the boot for the suspension is cracked so I want to replace it to keep all the crap out of the suspension. Where would I find this boot? I have looked everywhere and can't find one. Any ideas?

1) Call a Trek shop and have them order the part for you.

2) Make one of your own. If it's just a dust boot, a section of inner tube from a tube of appropriate diameter and a couple of zip ties should do the trick...

Many universal replacement boots available for motorcycles:

fork shock boot | eBay

Perhaps you can find one that fits..?
