Has anyone took the collar off so as to bung some grease under the seal? I dont want to force / break it, but shirley its just screwed on ?
Perhaps let the air pressure out first aswell (?)
I've been tempted. You go first...
Yes, you go first and let us all know 🙂
I queried X-Fusion about the seal and this is the reply I got:
Hey Alan,The seat post require very specific tools to service. Unless you are an authorized X-Fusion service center then you will not be able to service our seat post. To help lubricate that seal just drip a bit of chain lube on the seals and cycle it through. You can also use slick honey on the stanchion and cycle it through a couple times.
Cheers,
I've tried the oil but it needs doing before every ride.
Just to confuse matters-
