Hi,
I purchased a Scott aspect 20 at christmass and ever since it has been problem after problem first off i had to change all the brake pads as they were contaminated from when i got it out of the shop, but fixed that and the brakes worked fine.
I took it for its first service last week and they did all the normal stuff like tighten spokes and stuff. when i got it home i just left it in the garage until today when i got it out to clean it before i got it all muddy again, so did that and i found that suspension oil was leaking from the rebound adjuster, i thought that it may just be oil off the service so just wiped it off and thought nothing of it, went out for a fairly rough bike ride round some woodland but only for a mile top's and when i got it cleaned down with the hose and was cleaning it the oil from the shocks was dripping out and i dont know why it is and i dont have any experience with suspension as yet as this is my first decent bike.
Any help appreciated,
Cheers

take it back to the shop for fixing."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
