I’m having problems with my fork after installing a longer airshaft. The fork won’t extend fully unless a lot of pressure is built up inside. I’ve followed the MBR video on this, the only difference being i don’t have a bike stand so i’ve done it with the fork fitted to the bike and the bike upside down.
Is the fact the fork doesn’t want to extend fully a tell-tale sign of anything in particular? I’m hoping it’s obvious to somebody. It needs about 90 PSI to push it fully out. At my normal 60PSI it won’t go past (lower than) 20% sag.
I compressed the lowers fully and vented the air out of the chamber, and then as advised did this also to the end of each rod to remove pressure in the lowers too.
Any techs about? Just to clarify; forks are 27.5 150mm and i’ve fitted a 27.5 160mm/29 140mm shaft.
Cheers
