    filled my shock with a bit more air last night but after removing pump all the air escaped so reckon ive damaged my valve. Just took the shock apart but cant see how to get to the valve from inside – do they screw in from the outside or summit?

    It's just a shraeder valve , buy a core remover and use one from an old innertube (if you use that type). I had the same problem on my fox float and this is all I did 12 months on the shock still holds air fine.

    I bought one of these but you can probably buy the same sort of thing cheaper at a motor spares place.

    dajs – I'd have thought you'd need one of the air valve assembly pieces (slim) from Mojo? Looks they screw into the shock from the outside.

    Cheers carlosg – took the old one out with a core remover and inserted new un – all good now! 🙂

    Cheers bennyboy1 – managed to replace the valve without buying a full assembly kit
