Noticed this recently, that little white thing looks like a bit of plastic which has snapped.

It's a Fox Float RP-2, bike is a 6 month old ex8

    looks just like a plug to stop people playing with it.

    Its a bit of plastic pushed into the grubscrew to stop folk fiddling, comes from Fox like that.

    But it looks like what ever has been put in there has snapped and is now nearly flush, it looks like it has a thread on it too so how would they get it out if they needed to?

    I'm just concerned about when it comes to servicing, is this bit used?
