Want to give my Rockshox Reba forks a service ready for the summer. Need some fork oil can anyone tell me what weight fork oil I need ie 10w or 5w.
Also anyone got a link to a shop with a deal on doesnt have to be cycle shop motorbike fork oil is just the same only cheaper.
5wt and 15wt
Cheers if I remember right its 15w for the damper chambers and 5w for the bush/seal oil baths

Wrong way round!
5wt in the damper (About 120ml, top of right leg) 15wt for lubircation in the lower legs, and in the air chambers.
You can get away with 5wt everywhere though. I've done it, my forks are over 4 years old and just fine. Buy your oil from a motorbike store, £7 a litre rather than the rip-off prices bike shops charge.
Ah yes I was thinking about the Australian market only version 🙂
Just found a service guide on rockshox site and my local car parts place has a litre of 5w fork oil for £6.99. So thats my weekend sorted.
