Hi everyone! I hate to say it but im a noob. But i am a noob with a good heart and in need of some help. I recently had the front fork seals replaced and i found that one of the forks was leaking a little afterwards. I spoke to the mechanic and he said that was normal. The front end feels a bit sluggish and doesn't bounce back quickly at all when i put some weight on it and when going over rough bits in the road it feels like the forks have been replaced buy bricks made of dark matter. It's really harsh on the wrists. Can anyone offer any help please?!!! Many thanks Azazel
