  1. I see them from anywhere between $15 and $65. Any decent models at the
    lower end of that price range? Looking mainly to keep a couple of older Fox
    Vanillas up to decent pressure - they tend to lose a bit over several rides.

    Send them to Push.

    And then he won't need a shock pump? Wow, those guys ARE miracle workers!

    No, but they'll fix his leak and update the guts.

    See if the LBS has any lying around. I've two or three floating around
    so I'm sure that any LBS must have them lying around, spare and unused.
    If you're a regular customer they just might do a deal or a freebie for you.

  7. Or just rebuild them yourself. It's pretty easy, takes an hour, and
    should really be done once a year or so. Instructions on the Fox web
    site. If it works fine but just leaks air, that's all you need to do.

    As for the shock pump - one comes free with just about any new fork.
    They're all pretty much the same. The gauge is the important part, not
    the pump itself. As another poster said, your LBS may just have a
    drawer full of 'em.

    I've spent most of my money on mountain biking and windsurfing.
    The rest, I've just wasted.
