Got my first Giant! Only fitting jt comes in a GIANT box!
I need your help! 🚨
Recently I came across this Rockshox Bluto fork that has significant salt damage to the lowers. Essentially the fork can no longer be used because road salt has corroded away the brake posts so much that they no longer can hold bolts, and are no longer true in height and face.
The rest of the fork functions fine, and with a new lower and rebuild would have many more years of life in it.
Unfortunately @landrysbicycles & @srammtb themselves cannot source a new lower. This happens to be an older 2014 model and the parts are out of manufacturer.
MPN 11.4018.006.213
UPC 710845751554
Does anyone have some leads on where I might find a Bluto parts horder that would like to sell me their lower?
Any help would be amazing, had much rather go that route then making some sketchy shade tree fixes with JB weld and a helicoil...
Thank you!

Went out and rode the first Snow of 2022... and my gopro glitched towards the end. Post up a less than perfect ride vlog or scratch the video?
I'm almost at 1000 rides after 8 years of recording on Strava.
What should I do for my one thousandth ride?

Do you commute by bike? If so how do you carry your work stuff?
Hey there, it's me, JamesTheBikeGuy! I just love bicycles and everything that comes with them. I've been a bike enthusiast and mechanic for as long as I can remember — and this channel is here to share my passion for cycling with you.
To me, cycling is all about fun & freedom. There's nothing like the feeling of hopping on a bike and exploring new places, tinkering with the technical components, and of course, the adventure you find out in nature. And hey, let's not forget about the health benefits of cycling!
I'm a firm believer anyone can be a cyclist, and that is the most fun you can have per dollar aside from a frisbee. So, whether you're an experienced cyclist or just starting out, I'd love for you to join me on this bike-loving journey. Let's explore the world of cycling together!
