Just thought i’d check before rushing to TFT...

My Reba 100 2017 suddenly isnt holding air beyond about 40psi. Is there and idiot proof DIY fix or am i doomed to £120?

Service the air spring. New seals and it'll be fine.

Depends whats wrong with it;

Random common causes;
top cap slack
top cap o ring
schrader valve loose
shrader valve leaks
Air piston seal
Air shaft seal
Scored stanchion inner wall
Scored air shaft
etc

You can inflate the fork and spray it with soapy water and see where it is leaking from

Good advice thanks.

Service the air spring

You've very much overestimated my ability...
