I have a 2012 Diamondback Outlook, used to be my college bike, now its a spare for friends that want to ride with me. The fork is a Suntour XC 50mm. The fork sticks throughout its travel and just isn't as smooth as it was when new. I can't find any information on it as it is basically just a street bike fork. I sprayed the stanchions down with white lithium grease, it helped a little but its still pretty rough. Does anyone have any tips on how to smooth up the travel?

Thanks for that, but mine doesn't even have nuts on the bottom of the fork legs. Guess I'll just have to leave it
