To fit a thicker compression ring. I've done this before with ease ona different RP23. This airsleave just spins though both ways with no tightening/untightening apparent. You can actuate (?)it slightly by 1mm (top of sleave to housing but it wont unscrew.

Ideas?

(It holds air etc)

Whoa, hold on, I think that is a higher volume can, there is a circlip thing you need to take off first.

No you don't need to remove the circlip unless you're replacing the seal for the xv sleeve 😉 if the can is too tight you can use a rubber strap wrench, make sure you've let the air out too 😉
