i like my j4, they still wobble i little but can't feel it while riding.

very easy to service, frequency of service will depend on where you ride.

yeah 2010, 5 months old.

wet dales/lake grit will get inside an make it a little sticky. strip down and re grease takes about 10 mins.

That sounds painful - you should send that back under warranty....

They've got Joplin 3's on crc for either £98 or £112 depending on the seatpost size, then with that generous 10% they are worth a look.
