As i got this fork myself (used) i must point out that Formula did some major changes in the CSU and wipers design lately wich can be both seen on your fork AJ.
This because the old stanchions (identified by the crown with the lateral dimples) combined with the old wipers (Formula marking on them) have a bad wear problem, no matter how much you clean them.
But they didn't tell anyone! neither they differ the newer wipers from the old with a different spare number.
My advice if you're considering any Selva model for purchase, new or used, is to check for wich model you're getting and for stanchion wear. Hold them against the light because sometimes it's subtle.
Also when purchasing wipers, double check the version, the new ones can really help on an older fork.
Oh and the quick release, it's just a lever added to a bolt on axle.
