I took the caps off expecting to see an air valve like in my Bombers but it looks like a smaller valve design. Do I need a special pump or an adapter for my existing pump?
The valve has the pin in the centre like normal Schrader valve but rather than the pump fixing around the valve it looks like it needs to screw inside of the valve.
Not sure if this makes any sense but if someone has the same forks perhaps they can tell me.
You need an adaptor. I may have a spare one you can have, i'll have a look.
I cant find it, i must have sold it with my forks. You can get them from CRC for a few quid though.
you can borrow mine if you're up in yorkshire?
I think its call a "doppio air" adapter?
Southampton based.
Doppia Air sounds right. I saw that written somewhere on the fork. I might try one of the local bike shops. I am only pumping it up to sell it.
Cheers
Give the buyer a reduction in price so they can supply their own air of choice? 😆
Charge them extra for top class southern air?
Complete with excessive scummer ozone?!
I will use imported air if that helps
What year are the forks? I've got a 2006 pair and they just require a standard schrader shock pump.
You could take them to the new forest or isle of wight to pump them up with some nice "niche" air. Should be able to get a couple of extra quid off of the buyer then!!
