Ive got a 8 month old reverb that i haven't used since about June.
The post has locked up solid but i can still press the remote unlike other people who have had the same problem but the remote has locked up as well.
Air pressure is 250, and I have bled the remote and system but no luck in getting it to work.
Is this a warrenty job with oil in the air chamber or something? or shall I try bleeding it again?
Cheers
Jake
will it move if you release all the air
Locked up as in you can't push the seat down with the lever pressed in?
I've sometimes had mine get sticky if unused for a bit, and the older of my two posts sometime needs me to drop my arse down hard on the seat to get it to shift, then it's fine for a while.
I'm regularly applying fork oil around the wiper seal now after rides and compress down, raise to lubricate. Seems to help keep it going.
Could be it just needs a proper service if crud or damp has got inside.
Hi, I purchased a second hand one with exactly this problem. I've never bleed one before so I was extra particular in doing so. Off the bike plenty of tapping to get all the little bubbles out, wind in/wind out, tap bleed, tap bleed. You get the picture.
To my utter joy and disbelief it was fine first time.
Perhaps what I'm saying is do the bleed like a total first timer, over doing each stage.
All the best with it.
