@@goldenboyirl158 Yes, it's a good video. I just recently did a full service of an old (aproximatly 2006-2008) RockShox Reba dual air. I dont have expirience of servising bikes and it was first fork i ever disasemble. It was hard and took me like 8 hours. So now i continew look on RUclips how peaple servising different forks and bikes in general.
Hi , i have this exact fork so will be doing the same service. Please can you advice me on the oil weight and measurement as it will be the same . Thanks
Hello, according to manual, Pike requires 120ml of 5wt oil to top right (damper) leg. Bottom right (damper) leg needs 15ml of 15wt oil. Left (spring) leg requires oil only in bottom, also 15ml of 15wt oil. I found this in 2007 rockshox technical manual, which can be easily found online on Google.
Hi, I don't know how old is your Judy fork, as I found out they were produced since 1994. If it is not that old, You can try this site (trailhead.rockshox.com/en/search/ ) and write a serial number or if you don' have one you can specify the type, but older forks aren't listed there. If You find your fork there, you can find service manuals with used oils there. I found this old website (mombatbicycles.com/Rock_Shox.htm ) with pictures of old RockShox forks (pictures can by enlarged by clicking on them), so maybe You can compare the fork with the photos and discover which type or year of fork You have. After You know the type, just google search "(your fork type) service manual" and you should find oil specifications there and also how much oil the fork needs, then You can buy original RockShox fork oil with specified viscosity, which is the number like 15w or 5w or so on. As for me, I just used some cheap 5w motorcycle fork oil for the upper part, and for the lower part of the fork i used 15w engine oil for cars. It is not the right type of oil, but i used the same viscosities as in service manual. I am not going to use my fork in any serious riding, so i don't care about oil, but if You want to use it seriously, original bicycle fork oil would be the best but more expensive. I hope I helped at least a bit. Sorry for a late reply and have a nice day
@@billytwowillies Yes, I used engine oil because I don't care and I am not using the bike for any hard riding, but of course, you should use specific oil for fork

Výborne krásne video :) video je staré alebo je u vás stále zeleň na záhrade som zmätený :O
Dobrý deň,
áno, video je staré, avšak cela postprodukcia je velmi náročný proces, takže to trvalo spracovať pol roka.
S pozdravom
@@goldenboyirl158 Ďakujem za odpoveď, teším sa na ďalší kontent :)

@@juanhfpts HI, according to what i found on some forums, it is okay to use motorcycle fork oil.
@@goldenboyirl158 but did you not put ENGINE oil in that fork?? 15W40 oil is not the same as 15w fork specific oil
@@billytwowillies Yes, I used engine oil because I don't care and I am not using the bike for any hard riding, but of course, you should use specific oil for fork
