888's are heavey and by the looks of it weak as well. but then again no fork is indistructable coz if there was , you would be the richest mountain biker ever

joedaho (Dec 16, 2008 at 7:32)

And then go to the effort of flicking fork oil all over the bike?

I think that was a hard or wrong landing when front and rear suspention ruined, thats not normal...
