• And not sure how that happened as the boot was ziptied on

    There's a breather hole that has a filter over it (above the boot IIRC). Water gets in there if the filter is toast (it's a consumable) and will get trapped in the boot.

    There's a breather on headshoks too...but it's in the steerer tube between the headset bearing races so in theory water can't get to it.

    I have a normal Castle Tool, is that going to open this one up?

    Hmmm don't think so, yellow boot means this is old and probably needs the kidney tool.

  • Aaaaaaaaah........ yeah that would explain it. Not the best design when you think about it, hard to service by the user so some people won't bother.

    Where does one get this kidney tool and does it cost an actual kidney? ;)
    Dr cannondale i guess?
