Hey all. This is my first post here....yup, I'm an annoying newbie!:D
I just got a gary fisher big sur with the 2003 duke XC U-turn Fork.
I weigh 190, and the fork seems to be too soft for me. I was reading up that I can get black (Firm) springs for the fork.
My question is, how easy is it to change these out? Do i need to get new oil? Where can I get these springs?
The bike shop said he could do it for $100....I always do everything myself (I hate bringing the car to mechanics), so I was wondering if I can do this myself for cheaper?
Thanks for any help. Sorry if this is a dumb question.:D
