Went to pump the rear shock and it isn't working properly, not allowing much pressure 80 or so psi.
Can it be stripped down and the seals replaced?
But, as it's quite a few years old I guess it might be a case of replacing so what's recommended these days, are the digital types worth the extra wonga?
Cheers.

Dont bother, look on Ebay and you will find loads cheap. Often you get one with a new bike, as they are not used much they are sold on. I must have sold 3 or 4 for about a fiver in the past.

Yeah had a look, got another Beto from Merlin as I like the 2 connector thingy.
Will try and have a look though to see if I get the old one working!

Just scooting some silicon spray into it might be enough tbh, just helps seals to seal.

But yeah, they're good and they're very cheap so personally I'd just get another

I'll try that mate cheers.
Didn't see the point of spending £30-40+ on one, tbh didn't realise they were as expensive as that.
