Do you know him? do you have pictures of his poorly maintained bike? :rolleyes:

If you don't maintain a fork it will leak oil.

Because maintaining a fork is a sure-fire guarantee that it won't leak oil. :rolleyes:

Unless it's a Fox...they have a habitat of leaking oil regardless of how the fork is maintained (i.e., even when brand new).

Then you'd lose that bet.

If you 'know' a Pike rides like **** then you have confirmed my suspicions that you don't have a clue.

I can tell by reading your ******** post that you don't know squat. I've got a year and a half of riding on Manitou Nixon with no issues....... but my trails are smooth and flat.

I have a ROCK SHOX fork (that you claim are for people who don't ride much, which is total BS and makes you look like an uneducated looser FYI), and i have NEVER, in 3 years of riding just about everywhere, in all terrain, weekly, ever needed to work on my fork, and it has never leaked oil.

*Shakes head* And you've had a lot of experience with Rockshox? I've never had a problem with my rockshox and i'm sure a lot of other people haven't too.

I love my Rock Shox. Its only entry level, as are my riding skills. It suits me and it rides great for how i ride it.

The 'Zocchi on my DH bike is better for DH however. You have to buy the right fork for the right riding.
