Hi
Has any body has issue with fork stanchion wear on Rockshox 35 gold, see below this is right stanchion after 6 months of use. fork has been serviced and seals lubed during this period.

That looks awful. I knew odler Fox forks tend to have this issue due to poor mainrenance/ lack of lubrication but i’m guessing grit/sand got passed the dustwipers and is scraping your upper. Either that or poor bushing tolerance(might be more likely since lots of users were complaining about stiction in the 35’s)

Supplier has given me cash equivalent refund to replace the forks.
