Boxxers don't use foam rings - there's two seals, one outer dust seal, one inner oil seal.

I'm guessing Rob knows they have no foam rings already.
It's a Mod some people do on Lyriks/35mm Boxxers (Older 32mm Boxxers also)- remove the black oil seal and replace with two 35mm foam rings each side - so 4 in total are required. Improves small bump compliance and reduces stiction although bit more lower servicing is required.

I've learned something new. Interesting that. I stuck a set of Enduro Seals on mine, they seem to have had a similar effect, although the foam rings make sense.

Exactly right Zangolin.

I had this done by TFT on my old U-Turn Lyriks around 3 years ago when the 35mm Boxxers were first released, I believe it was a mod for the race scene initially.

Don't know Rob - as konastoner says Loco/TFT/J-Tec would be the people to ask.

TF certainly have them- they fitted some to my Lyriks. But they only seem to sell them as part of the low friction seal kit, which ain't cheap.
