Sort of carrying on from Giants thread about quietening down his zorst, I looked at mine recently as its been making a different noise.
Anyway, unfortunately seems that I may be too late to re-pack mine, as the Carbon Fiber sleeving has started to warp as I guess the holes that are in the packing material damage the CF.
So..brings me to my question...I gather I can get a re-pack kit from a few bike shops..but mine also has this brass/copper wire wool before the fiberglass packing (so sort of CF sleeve, fiberglass packing, brass/copper wool all wrapped round the internal tube/gauze). Does anyone know if the kits come with the wool stuff? and is it important?
Also...know this has been asked a few times, but searched and couldnt find the threads I was looking for, but anyone know local or otherwise of where to get CF sleeving? Know of a few places in the UK, but surely there has to be somewhere local or at least in Aus?
Cheers for any help.
