was out for a ride yesterday when my girlfriends fox triad shock started peeing out oil from the pro pedal valve, i'm phoning mojo today to send it in, in the meantime anyone got any ideas what it could be? she came of a small drop off, nothing big. could it be a seal or something more sinister?
does my tail look hard in this?

    Note, the leak from the top of the shock is a common problem with the triad according the tftuned. I got my LBS to remove the shock and send it away for me (went back to Specialized). Couldn't remove it myself, bent the allen key trying to undo it :-(. Got it back seems ok, but the rebound damper seems different, to before - a bit slower for the same position (i.e. number of clicks) on the rebound dial. The required pressure is different too. Need only about 100psi, instead of 110-120 before.
