goes in the lower legs of a Revelation 29er when reinstalling the lowers? Can't seem to find the figure in the manual.

Thanks for any advice.

Cheers
Rich

It's actually 15wt you need for the lower legs and it's 5ml.

Thanks. Is that both sides of the lowers? When I dropped the lowers oil only came out of the damper side.

What about in the top cap on the air spring side? I am pretty sure the SRAM vid said 6ml 15wt in the top.

Yes, both sides. You're meant to just put grease in the air spring but I put about 2ml of 15wt in there just to keep the foam ring lubricated.
