Fork Seal Installation Tool Appraisal

Motion Pro Ringer Fork Seal Driver 39mm

The item is a Motion Pro Ringer Fork Seal Driver, specifically designed for 39mm fork seals, as indicated on both the packaging and the tool itself. It comprises two main components that appear to be made of aluminum or a similar lightweight metal. The tool's body is predominantly black, likely anodized for durability, and features a prominent blue anodized, knurled band. This knurling provides a textured grip, enhancing user control during operation. The tool is cylindrical with a split collar design, allowing it to be opened and fitted around the fork stanchion. Engraved or laser-etched markings on the black portion clearly display 'Motion Pro', '39mm', and '08-0453'. These markings signify the manufacturer, the compatible fork seal size, and the product's model or part number. The tool appears to be in overall good condition with minor signs of wear, such as light scuffs and scratches on the black anodized finish, consistent with light to moderate use or handling. There are no major dents, chips, or cracks visible. The blue knurled band retains its vibrant color. The original packaging, a blue and brown cardboard box, is included and visible. The box displays the 'Motion Pro' logo, 'RINGER FORK SEAL DRIVER', '39mm' sizing, and 'Lifetime Warranty' badging, along with 'Motionpro.com'. The box shows some signs of shelf wear and minor creasing. This tool is a specialty item, indicating a modern manufacturing period, likely within the last 10-20 years, given its design and the contemporary branding.
