Anyone know how to adjust the closing angle on a QR15? Its on a fox float 150mm fork (2010).

There is a very small allen key which holds a small plate in place I think I might need to un do that but it looks a bit tricky.

You just move the the plate on the other fork leg to suit

Have you tried Google?

It's either a very small allen key or a very small torx head...be very careful with it...whoever fitted the fork when bike was assembled on mine managed to over-tighten it so it wouldn't come out...resulting in a rounded head and no clean method of removing it to adjust. In the end turned out it was my axle that had stretched but it is just a case of undoing this small bolt, turning the dial each way (screwing it in (or clockwise if I remember correctly ;tightens' it so the axle doesn't close as close to the fork leg)...then just redo the bolt.

The idea, according to the manual, is to have the lever in the close position almost touching the fork leg...

Mine had been over tightened in the factory too and was made of cheese. Very annoying.
