Front Fox shocks - leak?

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Hi,
I have a relatively new Specialized stumpjumper. (approx 100km on it).

I noticed this afternoon the pressure in the front forks was super low.

On the left hand front shock I could feel a slight lubricant.

Wondering if this is a leak? I am new to the shock system and thus wondering what this might be?

I have since pumped up the shock and tested for rapid drop in pressure. I did notice it would drop about 5 psi after pumping the front fork about 10 - 20 times.

Any advice, thoughts etc would be appreciated.

Thanks
Ben
