The biggest issue I've noticed with the DNM fork is stanchion stiction. For those who don't know it's the break-free friction to move the fork.
I found this video of a professional DNM rebuild and I noticed that he doesn't use any bath oil at all in the outer (upper) tubes to lubricate the stanchions. You can see the full rebuild is appropriately done but from about 10-11 minutes you can see there isn't oil added for the stanchion outers.
Anybody disassembled their DNM and noticed this? Bath oil would be an easy addition to fix stiction, hard to believe this was overlooked.
