Hi Bantam lovers,

What viscosity of fork oil are people putting in their B175's?

Its been a while since I have needed to change oil in a set.

Thanks Rhett,

I think I used SAE20 last time. TQF has similar viscosity as an SAE10 oil. So I might try that. I've obtained some oilite bushes from Autocycle - supposed to be the real deal factory surplus so fingers crossed they will fit the new stanchions fine.
