Down in Zona Zero looking forward to 2 weeks of HOT biking. My reverb has sort of seized. I really have to push hard on the lever to get it go down and the same again for it to slowly creep up. The variables since coming down are.. Drove down with the post in the compressed position. We came over a 1500 metre pass. It's very hot 36degress.
Any ideas?
I've got the syringes with me, some 10wt oil but no little torx key.....

Reverb oil is 2.5wt synthetic suspension fluid. Not sure that your 10wt will do it any favours.

Go to Intersport in the center of town and ask for Oriol or Angel. They will sort you out. Could be bleeding or need more oil or seat clamp too tight.

It's going to be boiling at this time of year, good luck!

It's dead. Good of Angel to get it straight in the stand though. Nice fella.
