Default Big bore o-rings

Hi guys,

My Scumacher big bores are leaking like a sieve despite being rebuilt, so it's time for some new seals, seem to recall reading they were some decent third party o-rings but I've searched the forum and can't remember where I read it, any recommendations? Scumachers at £8.00 for a full set are steep for 8 o-rings when bladders etc are all fine.

Cheers

Cheers guys, it was the Nortech ones I'd seen someone else mention and didn't spot the separate Scumachers, problems solved!

Thanks for the news on those newer red ones, mine have the older blues and they certainly require a good top up every time, not as much of an issue as all of the sand from the track sticking to the shock shafts which can't be good
