Hi - the rebound dial on my Revs no longer works, as far as I can tell this is because the internal allen "nut" that the red rebound adjuster fits in has rounded off, meaning the rebound adjuster has no effect. Is there an easy/cheap way to replace the inner "nut" bit of the rebound? Can't face £80 to TFT etc.
Cheers
Before you do anything, have you tried using an allen key to adjust it instead of the knob?If the key turns the adjuster, but has no actual effect, then you're probably looking at a leaking damper cartridge(certainly common on the cheaper forks in the range).
Hi - have tried an allen key, it just spins in the adjuster...
New damper cartridge time, unless you can jam something in to set the damping as you like and then leave it. As an aside, they aren't actually that difficult to change if you're mechanically competent.
How the SMEG have you managed to round that allen bolt off? I'm astonished. 😯
Mines done the same here too
Allen bolt? not the 5mm on the bottom, but the one internally (or did you mean that (2.5mm) one?
mine failed too off it went to Stendec in went new updated cartridge and now they are better than ever by a long way
