Due to being a lazy arse for year or so the sids aren't working as they should.
120mm solo air, not sure what year 2013 I think. The bike has been stored upright on back wheel for most of the time.
Even taking out all the air they are stiff in operation. It does have a top cap and 2 or 3 token fitted, I did this when the bike was in use and it did stop them diving through travel and improved the ride.
Am I right in thinking oil has got past a seal or something?
Anything I can try that doesn't involve taking the legs off?
The annoying this is that LoCo did a service on them when I got the forks and I've hardly enjoyed the benefit! 😳
TIA
Time to give them some love. At least a lower service.
That was an expensive 100 miles or so then......
Have you ridden them or just pushed them down a bit?
I've got a set and tbh they've always been stiff and not very plush - however I can definitely tell if they've not been used for a bit. Halfway into the ride they feel smoother again.
I'd drop the lowers as a matter of course after 12 months though, 10 minute job and hardly expensive when it's about a tenner for a litre of fork oil.
