Hi,

The reverb needs a bleed. Can anyone recommend me a reasonably priced oil (and where to get it from online)

Thanks
James

It's 2.5wt oil, which might be tricky to find.

Any fully synthetic 2.5 wt suspension oil is fine, big name brands are best Motul, Castrol, Fuchs etc, the Rockshox stuff will be expensive £ per litre but comes in small pots, where as most other stuff comes in litres. We can do the Motul at £10 per litre although need to sort out smaller containers for stuff like this and lower service kits etc.

wt means fig all really, even within the same company wts aren't comparable between ranges.

If you go by viscosity in cSt though: [url= http://www.peterverdone.com/wiki/index.php?title=Suspension_Fluid ]From Here[/url]

You can see Castrol 10w fork oil has a lower 40 degrees C viscosity than another 2.5w oil.

So PVD is saying that Castrol 10wt is 2.5wt? Has he told them, sure they'd be interested to know 😉
