This very thing has now occurred to me.

I have a transferred warranty and am hoping that there is no problem.

For me, I do not feel it is safe to ride. Brake is oily and at less than 50% brake power, which is what led me to discover it!

Are there any other 38mm forks that fit the 2013 DS???

My 2012 forks were breaking apart, only internally. The metal shavings that were created from the damage got into the seals and caused them to leak.
