I have a set of Fox float 34 R forks that i got with a new bike about 6 months ago. However I am really wishing now that i had upgraded them to have a lock out. Is it possible to do this as an aftermarket addition? or is my only choice to sell them and buy a new set ;( Any advice appreciated
don't think there is an aftermarket fit - call tft or mojo.
Does anybody require lockout so much that they're prepared to lose shed loads of cash selling a fork only to buy a new one?
Pretty sure you'll need a new damper assembly, which won't be cheap.
No didnt really want to sell and buy a new set, i am very happy with the forks (Actually 32''s sorry typo) But just wondered if upgrading them was possible, as occasionally the lock out would be really nice to have.
I had some float R forks from 2003, I think. Anyway the performance was starting to show somewhat when compared with newer floats and they tended to be a bit divey under braking. They had been well looked after and were in tip top condition. I phoned mojo and for £120 bought a new, 2007 at the time, RLC dampener for the fork. I fitted it and the rebound/compression was/is a considerable improvement over the 2003 R dampener.
They probably cost more now, and if you can't fit it yourself it'll cost a lot more, as Mojo will fit it but they'll want to service it at the same time. Very very easy to fit it yourself though. I never use lockout but I prefer a little more compression dampening than the factory setting.
mojo can do it call them, prob wont need a service if they've bin looked after, just fitting new cartridge.
