gotta service forks man. That station coating wear is from lack of servicing(lubrication), they're MTB forks designed to be inverted to wet seal foams etc. And if that stanchion was rotated when wear just started showing you'd have also increased the life. New forks are inverted so seals kept lubricated. Not a fan of the head tube extenders that come stock on these. I remove them and run steerer tube spacers instead. Having a join between bearings seems like a bad idea to me and you see many ovalizing the frames, not preventing it. And get a direct mount stem, get rid of another weak link.
Sick vid, keep it on 🤟
yall deserve way more subs and views
Thank you bro! We appreciate it, more videos on the way👀🎬
Some muck off to start with would have helped I guess.
