With All the Talk about front axle installation,,,,  I was careful while cleaning the front bearing grease seals. Recently installed these Totally Buff fork protectors, but.  They created a bind in the pinch system. The axle proved tight and had to be driven out with a wooden punch once All the bolts were loose. Normally, the axle pushes out with finger pressure from the screw side. I found that the sleeve on the protectors are a little undersized, causing the pinch bolt to not release pinch pressure on the fork bottom. Added a little more clearance with a 5/16 drill. I think the too small hole caused side pressure on the bolts. Now the pinch action is returned to stock and the axle slides in and out easily.    I thought you would want to know.  Bagstr
