I mentioned to a fellow rider ( he s a plumber) that I wanted to add gaiters and he discouraged it, saying it would cause rust on the fork legs.
I had never heard this before. Can anyone comment on if this happens.
I live in the Deep South ( hot and humid 8 months out of 12) but don't ride in the rain and bike is kept in an enclosed garage
Thanks
