Hi chaps,

I've lost my rebound knob on my Pikes, has anyone got a spare?

I've got the footnut but not the adjuster...

Cheers

Ricks

if you get another one it will just get lost eventually.

Most people setup their rebound and leave it so you don't really need an adjuster but if you do just use an allen key and keep it in your pack.

I've had countless Rockshox forks over the years, and never lost a rebound knob. The new design on the Pikes leads me to believe it has less retention.

The previous type had a rubber oring and a circlip, and I never lost it.

Two rides in, and the knob is gone on the Pikes!

Cheers duir, I do adjust my rebound during rides. Although I hear you ๐Ÿ˜‰

As far as I know the 'removable' (hence easy to lose) rebound adjuster on the newer Rockshox and I'd assume the new Pikes, are different to those on the old models. Someone lost one it needed adjusting so offered mine but it's not the same apparently.

So make sure you get the right one.

However - when you do get a replacement. Keep it in your bag/pocket/etc, not on the fork. Something I was advised to do early on by people who'd lost them before.

you know you can just use a hex key right? I've lost 2 out of the 3 or 4 I've had, they're too expensive to replace.
