I do not know how to tell you the make & model of the forks
on my Specialized Rockhopper Comp FS bike. It has two shocks,
rubber coils on top, no air opening visable, a black plastic
or rubber cap on top held in tightly (apparently) by a bolt
cinching a circle around the top holding the forks on.

There is a circular sticker on the right side fork which
says, verbatim:
Specialized Future FS Shock Sport (made in USA)

Does that provide enough information for you to help me?
Basically they bottom out with the slightest pressure.
I was wondering how to rebuild or even get the parts.

What is inside? Foam? Spring? Rubber? Piston? Air?
