[Closed] Rock Shox Vivid, very slow rebound

Got myself a new (old) bike the other day (yay!) but unfortunately the shock is paying silly buggers (booo).

It's a 2013 Vivid RC2 and the problem is that there is waaaay to much rebound damping. Even with both beginning and end stroke wound fully open, it's still returning very slowly. I wondered if this could be caused by there not being enough pressure in the bladder thingy on the piggy-back? Can anyone confirm that this could be an issue? If not, any better ideas/solutions?

I know that the bladder comes charged with nitrogen but you can buy a pump adapter, apparently, so presumably you can top it up with normal air?

Finally, does anyone know where I might be able to get hold of the adapter?

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, that's the deely, 40 day wait on dispatch mind. Cheers.

Do you have a vivid? Any trouble with rebound damping/bladder thingy?
