Hi,

As title. Want to top up an old post with oil in the easiest way possible. Been googling it and found mixed answers.

Cheers for any help.

I do this a lot as mine is cracked and leaks.
1. Let the air out
2. Remove valve core
3. Either inject oil with a syringe or remove the air valve with a 10mm socket.
4. If you remove the valve fill the post past the threads.
5. Re fit the valve, excess oil will escape where the core is missing.
6. Fit the valve core
7. Cycle it a few times then inflate it.

Or follow the xfusion service vid.

@jamesoz...Perfect. You've just confirmed what I thought I might be able to do but wasn't too sure. Much appreciated.
