Or ... "if you can't fix it with cable ties ..... you aren't using enough cable ties".
As my eldest son said to me just after I'd fixed his pedal-bin, using ...... you guessed it.
It was still working on my next visit some months later, though by Christmas it had given up the ghost.
Just needed a cable-tie service though, I reckon.

Wow on the forks.
That looks just like the package that I also hope to receive ... someday. (I have similar, all silver, 50/54mm forks, though mine are non-adjustable).
So what adjustments did you go for then ?
In fact I'm very interested in all the details.
Also, I notice that your original internals have linear springing.
Were the forks originally from a monster ?
More pics would be good, particularly of the adjusters.

Finally, if I can be cheeky .. should you end up deciding to bin the old internals I'd happily pay postage and packing if you binned them in my direction.
I'm just interested to have a poke around and see exactly how they tick really, but also possibly with a view to modding the cartridges, or at least seeing how/if they can be cut open.
