got some recon 29r forks.
when they are locked out, there is still some movement in them when the front is weighted.
how can i fix this?

You can't. As they have a blow off.
I can ask Neil.
Is this on your Inbred 29er?
Was it a complete bike?

it is, and it was complete.

Ton, that's correct behaviour. Forks don't lock solid any more. 🙂
It's a hydraulic not a physical lock and if they didn't move you'd blow them to bits inside. The floodgate adjuster alters the point at which they 'blow off' or 'open up', i.e. on a bigger or smaller hit. Set near or at minimum it's more like a pedal platofrm, set towards max and it's more like a lock out.
