Hello
Despite having been riding, building and maintaining MTBs for a while I would appreciate some words of advice regarding a pair of Rebas that I have just started using (my first pair of Rockshox since some Judys in the 90s – I usually ride Fox).
I bought them secondhand but almost new some years ago, they have poploc, dual air and are old enough to still have the option of V brake bosses.
I have been trying to set them up for XC riding and have read all of the online resources and checked Youtube. The first problem is that the red rebound control know will only turn through 180 degrees. I am sure that it was fine when I bought the forks, is there a way to free it? Does the red knob bit just pull out of the fork?
I have been trying to max the amount of travel that I can get out of the fork and can probably get 65mm. This didn’t seem like much so I thought I’d remove the air from both chambers and gently compress the fork – again 65mm is the max. Is this normal?
As ever, your words of wisdom appreciated!
