    jolly.i know there is a pressure loss on the -ve side when you remove the pump(small -ve chamber)
    so buy repeating the proses a few times you can determine what it is.with my pump it,s 15 psi.
    iv,e tried 3 different pumps on it.
    but to get full travel i still need to put 10psi less in the -ve.
    got me absolutly baffled.
    as i said before they do not loose any presure nor do the equalize.
    guese i,ll just have to live with it or send them to tft.

    neil-if i use them with 10psi less in the -ve they work spot on.
    don,t pack down when in use.
    it,s setting them up that equal presure pulls down the fork to 125mm.
    they don,t leak from -ve or +ve they just stay at those presures.
    bit bewildering.

    thats it you see.equal presure and it packs down.

    robhughes

    (equal presures (or more in the +ve) and you get full travel).
    still a bit confused on that one.
    is it equal presures or more in the +ve? 😕

    robhughes

    neil-does this go against srams advice that you should put equal pressures in both and still get 140 travel.if i did that then i,d be down to 125mm..confused.com.

    CaptainMainwaring.on my new 426 dual air pikes this happens.
    if i put 75psi in the +ve.
    th -ve pulls down the travel at 65psi???
    this goes the oposite to what you said.
    got me wondering now…

    i always find that staying at my sisis in strathaven, which is just about bang in the middle of most of them the best place.
    breakfast is free and an evening meal+bed for a week costs about a couple of gifts for her kids.
    made up she moved up there. 😉

    i had a very similar experience with a close family member.he had been into it all .all flavors of drugs for years.
    he tried eveything.stopping starting.stopping starting,AA time after time.the amount of times he ratled while detoxing in unbelivable.this went on for 8 years.
    he had full family suport the works.all the usual A+e,alcoholic fits, pnumonia.in the end HE booked himself into a detox/rehab center for a month.this was for alcoholics and real hardend junkies of which most where criminals. there as part of bail conditions.that was over 2 years ago.now he,s a completly different lad.
    and quese what..
    he,s a shit hot xc/dh dude now who loves life to bits.
    i go riding with him often.
    when i talk to him now it,s like he,s been reborn into one of the best lads you could ever meet.
    so it,s a case of don,t give up on him because there,s someone else inside there dying to get out but doesn,t know how.
    a nice positive story anyway.

    has anyone mentioned.
    but butter in the beans while heating them up.they taste completly diferent.they go a cloudy very light orange.i,m sure it,s some kind of crazy chemical reaction and an aquired taste.bit of a marmite kind of thing.

    iv,e got a set of 5,s and they can be a bit if a pain sometimes.pad change is a piece of p###s but the pistons often stick.also i just can,t for the love of god get any power out of the front.tryed everthing.so i think this thread has finaly convinced me to go forth and buy some xt,s.

    already pike 426 dual air fitted new.don,t know why as not on spec.
    09xt cranks.twin+ti bash

    spesh format ti saddle.(from to states)
    rims 717,s.(pro2)
    tyres nobby nics.

    i think the bigest saving is getting rid of those bloody fsa cranks.they weigh a ton.from memory it was over a pound.
