Just serviced my Revelation Race dual air 2010 lowers so only a lube service, released all the air though from pos & neg chambers and all went well no problems. Pumped my forks back up job done.

However last night i checked my fork pressures and the neg cahamber had lost a lot of pressure so i filled again and checked this morning it lost 20 psi overnight. This morning i rode Thetford Forest and got home checked pressure again and its lost none. Soooo what could have been or is the issue? Keeping in mind it was only a lower lube service and i didn't touch the air chamber side of things.

lower leg lube = no need to touch air pressures btw.

when you disconnect/reconnect the pump you lose some air - the neg chanber is TINY so even a smidge of air equates to 5-10 psi.
