i have an iron horse 04 sgs dh pro, just got it a month ago, what can i use to replace those rubber bump stops that come on the boxxers, they are already cracked and splitting so what should i use to replace them. or can i buy them. i think i've seen a bike that used a little round rubber piece, like the kind that go on the bottom of furniture, on the downtube where the fork contacts their bike. thanks for any suggestions.

Use old tubes and zip tie them around the top. Use a few layers to ensure that it will cushion it on contact. How do you like the SGS? I beleive i'm going to buy one in about 2 months in a 19". The components choice looks killer.

6'3 Do you know what spring weight comes stock on it spark? I weigh 165, so i'm not sure if i'll need a different spring, or if it will be fine.

The best bump stops for your fork are the little circular rubber stickers you buy at home depot. Cheap, good to look at, and easy to put on.

On my Monster, I use the stops that used to be available from DMX Racing. Good quality and don't slip. I have some new spares that would fit the Boxxer, PM me.
