EXTERNAL FORK LUBRICANTS AREN’T THE ANSWER
They don’t fix the problem. Dry foam rings, contaminated oil, worn bushings, and dirty seals can’t be repaired with a spray or drip bottle.
They can attract dirt. Oily residue left on your stanchions can collect dust and grit, increasing contamination around the wiper seals.
The results are temporary. Any improvement in friction typically disappears because the underlying issue hasn’t changed.
They can mask overdue maintenance. Instead of addressing the actual problem, you’re putting off the service your suspension needs.
THE REAL SOLUTION: LOWER FRICTION FROM THE START
At Fluid Focus, we’re always looking for ways to improve suspension performance, not just restore it to factory condition.
That’s why we’ve partnered with Corteco to develop a Low-Friction Fork Wiper.
WHAT MAKES OUR WIPERS DIFFERENT?
Lower Breakaway Friction
Reducing the force required to initiate fork movement improves sensitivity to small bumps and trail chatter.
They make your fork feel fresher for longer
More Consistent Suspension Performance
By reducing friction at the wiper seal, your fork can respond more freely to terrain inputs without relying on external lubricants.
Performance That Doesn’t Come From a Spray Bottle
Proper internal lubrication, clean components, correctly sized bushings, and low-friction wipers work together to keep your suspension operating as intended.
INCLUDED WITH EVERY FLUID FOCUS FORK SERVICE
