My other thread got no answers, so how stiff is the low speed compression knob on a set of Revelation Rct3s meant to be? Just fitted a brand new set and it doesn’t seem to want to turn either way other than about 60 degrees (total) of play. Everything else is fine, just the low speed and I don’t want to force it and knacker my new forks.

Tut.

Sorry, but the search function on this site is so frustratingly useless, I never use it anymore. So, unless it’s been recently overhauled, I wouldn’t criticise anyone for not using the STW search function.

Low speed compression is the one at the bottom? Pretty sure mine spins for several revolutions.

Should be a small amount of resistance but easy to turn. Think twisting the head off a baby Robin, about that much resistance.

Thank you all for the most entertaining responses.

I’ve been in touch with the supplier and they invited me to show my stiff knob to someone in a local store who will see if they can get it to twist, otherwise they’ll take it off me and get it fixed.

Could you please take your forking problems to porn hub.

I’m pleased to report that the tale of my stiff knob has a happy ending, it’s been looked at by a professional and now all I need is a light pressure from a couple of fingers to make any adjustments.
