Title: Ceriani fork seals 35mm

Are these the correct type and size seals?  The local distributor will sell them for 3.94 each, this seems to be a good price. Is it?


Thank You

John though these c/r seals do fit the hole and seal oil the lip pressure cannot exceed 15 /lbs pressure.... Front forks exceed this pressure and you will passs oil through them very shortly. The pricing is extremly attractive but they are not designed for the forks hydraulic application. I work for a bearing distributor and we sell c/r....i have tried before and know first hand they wont work.....spend the extra bucks and get the propper seals.... Brian Taylor
