[#876130]

15 hours old. Single air chamber. Air preasure was way to low when I turned up at the beginning of the trail. Not carrying a shock pump I locked it out (compression lock) and rode carefully for 20min over some rooty stuff.

Now there is about half a inch travel when locked out. Damage repairable?

No. Just pump it up. It should be fine.

That IS after I pumped it back up.

Not locked-out, it all knotchy now as well. Bugger.

RST M-29 - theoretically serviceable but probably not in the UK.
