+ | ====== Fork Oil Drainage ====== | ||

+ | An old ice cream pail (5qts) and with a hole cut in the side of it and slit from the hole to the top it. \\ | ||
+ | This way it'll you can wrap it around the axle and under the fork (and duct taped it to the wheel). \\ | ||
+ | The disc brake side takes a bigger notch to get it around the caliper mount. Then put some duct tape over the brake pad area so it would stay oil free. \\ | ||
