We at Miedoso Racing know that there will be some skeptical people until they use Forslyk. (Go see the forums that we posted on the front page to see reviews of unknown users.) Even our test riders didn't believe it until they tried it. They only had one complaint, which is normal when taking away friction. Their suspension was too soft. This is due to the friction between the rubber seal and metal fork leg was holding the suspension back from utilizing it's valving correctly. Thus, they stiffened up their compression and rebound a couple of clicks, and were amazed at the difference this product made. There are two reasons that Forslyk helps reduce arm pump. First, when you initially hit a braking bump, the forks have an initial thud which you feel all the way up to your handlebars due to the rubber seal needing to break loose from the dry metal fork leg. This is eliminated with Forslyk to a certain degree. Anyone who says they can get rid of 100% stiction is incorrect, since this is impossible. Everything rubbing against one another causes friction. Forslyk just drastically decreases this stiction. The second reason it helps with arm pump is suspension 101. The stiffer you set compression (to a certain point), the plusher it is on the small bumps, but too harsh for the larger jumps. Although by using the hardest settings, you stop using the full amount of travel and it feels like your bike is set up to do a supercross event. With Forslyk, your suspension isn't held back by the stiction, thus is able to utilize the full travel based on the internal valving, and not the seal. On my own bike, I personally went from the softer side of compression (4 clicks from the softest) to only 2 clicks from the stiffest. Each person prefers different settings, but I set my motocross bike up to only bottom 1 or 2 times in a given lap. Prior to Forslyk, at 2 clicks from the stiffest, my bike felt harsh and I pumped very fast. After putting on Forslyk, it felt like the braking bumps almost disappeared. I can go more laps without pumping up now, and feel faster going through sections that I was nervous about hitting hard before. |

Some of the responses are coming in, so we are going to post them on here. (These are off some ebay auctions we ran.) "Amazing product! Applied, then raced indoor and out, it works!" "Great stuff, works great!" "All I can say, Forslyk is the Bomb!!!! Works AWWEEESSOOOMMEEE!!!" "There's hope for Forslyk, works as advertised." "Fork Coating is awesome." "Product has made a noticeable difference." "Seems to have made the tubes slicker, but have not race tested yet." "Smooth as butter!!!!!!!!" "It smooths out the fork's stroke." "My forks felt smoother than my girlfriends legs!" "Went on easily and seems to work great." |

We have had some emails worried that Forslyk would be hard to apply. This process is super easy and can be put on by almost everyone who can take their front wheel off and replace it without any problem.
1. Shake bottle well. 2. The room temperature while putting this on, needs to be 70 degrees or warmer, since it requires some drying of the chemicals, and they may seperate at temps lower than that. 3. Raise front of bike up, raising front tire off the ground. 4. Take off all parts surrounding fork legs for access. (fork guards, dust boots etc, no need to take apart forks or take off seals) We do recommend not putting Forslyk on while suspension is apart, you only need the lower portion coated. 5. Spray 5-6 pumps of cleaner on inner fork tubes. 6. Wipe all oil residue and dirt off fork tubes. 7. Wipe fork legs with clean dry paper towel. 8. Drop approximately 8-10 drops of Forslyk on to paper towel per fork leg and spread it all over the fork leg, with some rubbing. 9. Let dry for 5 minutes or dry with warm heat for 30 seconds. Will become milky white filmed. 10. Wipe off fork leg with dry clean paper towel. 11. Apply second coat of Forslyk, same as first coat for best results. (Do not use cleaner again) 12. Put parts on fork legs back together. 13. You are finished, and your forks are Forslyk. 14. You will need to recoat your forks once every season or as needed. |
