Hi,

I've got a set of the above and unfortunately I'm only getting 120mm of travel or so. Even with both air chambers empty the forks will not fully compress.

When I last changed the oil in the legs I put the maximum recommended amount of oil in (I think they recommend between 3-8ml of oil). Will this be causing the problem with the travel?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers, Ed

Does the 'lockout' work? Sounds like oil from upper right leg (damper side) leaking into lowers. 'Lockout' shouldnt work as there will not be enough oil around damper circuit. If you drop the lowers and way more than 5ml comes out the right leg, that'll prove it. Fairly common on RS forks and easy to fix...new o-ring and oil

Lockout works a treat. I'll drop the lowers and check the oil levels. Could be time to service the seals.
