Title: fork protector removal Post by beacon on 12/14/11 at 20:21:57 Any idea how to remove the vertical black-plastic fork protectors without destroying them or the sliders? I've got the sliders off the forks but can't figure out how to remove the things so I can resuse them. |

Title: Re: fork protector removal Post by built2last66 on 12/14/11 at 23:03:47 You have to take the front wheel off and slide them off.. I cut mine off with a razor blade scraper, just make a little groove, then a deeper groove, then you can basically pull it off the rubber is so soft... I cut em off and put on a Super Brace with the fork guards. |
