Hello all over the world
Have just a problem with a leaking bailer in a 10 year old epic V14. I cleaned up the rubber gasket whith soapy water and vinegar, brushed everything out with a fine painters brush and spilled all dirt out. I also glued a fine plastic stripe under the left and right arm of the exenter rod (closing stem) in that way , that the closin cap gets more lift upwards. The seal is untouched by that! All that helped a little bit , but doesn`t closed the bailer in the required way. May be there is a alternative tric to restore the seal? Some rubber material react whith aceton ,white spirit or other chemicals ,so that they increase (swell?) a little bit(??) , ore has anyone a recepy to change the seal or may be the hole bailer in a worst case. Epic spare parts are not available at every corner here in Germany ,so that i have to find a different way to repair my ski. ( and yes,--excuse my english!!)
have fun on the water : Erich

O.K. guy`s
May be i formulate my question a little bit different. When there is no chance to repair a Epic bailer ,whith wich other bailer would you replace the old one? A Debrito ,--Nelo ,-or Anderson bailer ,- wich one is the best in your opinion?
