Just got new bike with Pike Air u-turn fork and the adjustable travel is not getting beyond 125mm, any ideas?

If they are dual air, first thing to try is to release the air from the negative chamber (botttom of leg)

The more the neg air exceeds the pos air pressure, the less travel you are gonna get outta your forks
