Even after ten years, this clip proves helpful - in my case not only for it being the tutorial I just needed but on top of it for helping identifying some parts in my Tora SL from visible part numbers in your video - as SRAM tends to be a bit cryptic on what parts actually fit my SL solo air fork.

4:31 Dust seals must be replaced every 50 hours. If you dont do it, you are risking the failure of the dust seal where the spring seats. That will result in a direct contact between spring and upper leg. If this happens when you are riding, then you are going to have an upper leg scratched by the spring since the leg will be moving up and down against the spring. Dust seals are not to be inspected just by looking.... You cannot see their internal material fatigue. You got to remove it every 50hrs in order to avoid this particular damage of the plastic spring seat being bended / taken away / broken by the spring .... The 50hrs kit is there not to avoid it. It is there to buy it for some reasons. Good luck!
Oh thank you so much. I am going to do this to my forks in a couple of weeks and I did not find any good videos on RUclips and this helped so much!! It would be better is you spoke in it.
Much easier than you'd think. Take your time. Makes for a smoooth operating fork! big difference if oil is old. There aren't parts that are easily put in backwards, dropped, springs that jump out and that kind of thing. Easy out, easy in. I've done a few (RS Blackbox, Foxes, all easy enough, even if you are, like me, not mechanically inclined). Revise that "tap gently with mallet," to "beat the snot out of that bolt," as that is sometimes the case, it slowly works loose after many medium taps.
Great video thanks, watched this to strip my 2010 Revelation Race. Some differences on the internals but not massively. Ready to have new seals fitted and be re-assembled tomorrow, hoping that will sort out my leaking negative chamber!
@@cannondany Turned out nothing was wrong with any seals, the foam on the positive air piston had completely dried out and that seemed to be causing the leak. Re-oiled and regreased and it's all running smoothly again :)
Good job and it's alwas surprising how smooth even these cheaper forks like the Tora, XC32 and Recon are after a complete service. The solo Air spring hasn't changed remarkably since then, nowadays they just come with grease. I always use both grease snd some drops of oil for the air chamber.
Great video, I've been servicing MTB shocks for ages even before the days of RUclips. From Rockshox Judy DH, to Rockshox Jett, Dart, etc. Manitou as well . For the Rockshox Judy they have a special slider lube called Judy butter. Pretty much the same lubes as shown in the video. Rockshox recommends staying away from lithium based lubricants.
so is it the same process cleaning the older rock shox forks?? I got two 90s Zaskars with bad Rock Shox forks that I would like to try to rebuild. Thanks!
@@AngelRodriguez-kg9bz It is depending what style. Some of them have gas struts which others don't. Some gas strut Assemblies are rebuildable while others are sealed and require replacement. However if your down tubes are pitted slightly or missing chrome, or the coating, it's better to replace the whole fork. Some rebuildable gas forks require nitrogen instead of air.
So that's what they meant by lower oil. Why is this done? Does this distribute heat better to the outside? I can't imagine it lubricates super well, unless the manufacturer expects it to slosh up and down a lot in bumps.
Yikes! I used to take Sony Walkmans & turntables apart, repair them and put them back together. This is pretty much the same. Not going back to that!. But kudos to the tech who is demonstrating this. More than "good job" -- WOW! I recommend anyone attempting to do this to video yourself so you can get all the parts back in the correct order.
2 wheels carry our soul! It's a very nice video, I'm an electric mountain bike rider, I live in the Netherlands, I'm still waiting for my new channel. Good luck with my love.....
Great vid dude the only things I’d do differently would probably change all seals once I’d gone to the trouble of a full strip down, for what they cost. Also never go near a seal with a knife if your planning on re-using. Still good work man
do not use oil for air springs, use calcium grease instread do not remove rebound rod if all okay, because you can damage seal o-ring and oil from damper will leaks to the lowers while riding
Very informative, clear and w/o unnecessary fluff; nice music too. I'm wondering: is the shock pressure specific per shock/model or is there a general pressure range the shocks should be pumped to? Dziekuje kolego.
I have no idea, i have a rockshox argyle 409 and i ride mine on like 225 psi. It's a dirt jumper fork. not super stiff tho but it sounds like that at that pressure. it's perfect for me now.
I have to do the first Service on my Zeb Ultimate soon, i am more than Uncomfortable doing it myself... Bit less after this Vid, but the Intenals are bit more coplicated :/
A full rebuild would be to replace dust seals & the bushings too, bushings have to be replaced if you experience play, neglecting this will result in damage.
they eventually do for me, but all depends on how hard and how much you ride other variables, I always Check everything on my bike regularly. it takes some time, but I they loosen up after some months, Even Top caps loosen up. My rule is every thread has to have Loctite on it.
Johannes Nilsen So you wanna tell me, me who rides hardcore dh, that stuff loosens?(i'm kidding)😂 Sure stuff loosens, but those bolt have loctite on them, and a seal too which holds it in place. Maybe you have a cheap Fork?
The Loctite that is on eventually wears off anyway, so need to add new. I got a Fox 32 Evo, If Loctite on it is not cured between the two surfaces so it does not give the same effect. but planning on a better fork someday, just have to do more research, also temperatures and different reaction rates in materials play a big role, for example getting a bike out with threaded steel BB in alloy frame without Locktite and the bb will loosen in 10 minutes, bolts without Loctite loosen up pretty fast too. I regularly check cus even if there is Loctite it eventually gets too old, and much use wears it out and loosens anyway but that's after many months, but n a fork I would have to have it serviced anyway. also, wear in threads can cause bolts to loosen up quicker, not had any wear yet. how much fast htings loosen depend on load, vibrations, materials, temperature changes, all make a difference, I get a lot of variation from all of these.
Guys! 15:30 It is incorrectly assembled. There is no automatic pop-lock, the spring is not under tension. Pop-Lock will work only manualy so shifter will not work as it should.
@@nemanjamitic015 It is not easy to say, cause idk how to name parts properly. Will try with colors :D You need to put both springs on this black plastic axis and at the end put this little blue part. Do not throw it into the tube! Rotate it all upside down (so that blue one does not fall off) and put yellow tube on it from the top but not to the end. Make sure that the bend on the bigger spring caugth the pin from tube and than rotate (twice? dont remember) yellow tube OR black axis to stretch the spring. After that push axis as the little blue part touch the bottom of tube. huh, is that clear? :D
Any ideas on how to separate a seized Judy? No movement at all either way. Opened it up removed the spring and drained the oil from the other side. Thinking of removing the fork seals to see if anything nasty is hiding under them. Any help would be appreciated.
motor cycle mac here . i would have removed the dust rings instead of jamming a rag into them . also you can get them cleaner in side by just flushing them with cleaner spray .
Nice video! One Question can you exchange the fork damper oil without removing the lowers? Or will some oil remain at the bottom under the sliding seal so you don't know how much you need to put back in?
hi folks just find out how to assemble the damper and it was hard to figure out.IMO dont take apart the damper.No need for that just change the upper and lower seals of the damper.
tnx mate for awesome tutorial i didn't understand just one thing at the end, when you pouring oil with injection into the lower legs before tightening that two last bolts on lower legs, how much oil do you pour in which side and how do you do it (in one injection all or do you separate whole needed oil into more small doses) ? would appreciate if you can explain it... ( :
Johannes Nilsen sure mate and thanks, logic stuff i was confused about the doses that you pouring in... do you put whole needed quantity of oil in one dose or do you separate in more doses (for some reason) ? this question is for putting oil in lower legs through rebounded and other side ... ( :
Thanks for the video, unfortunately it was not done for two years, I'm trying to try my hand following your tutorial but the negative part is blocked, I can not pull it out more I do not come out as if it were completely dry; how can I do?
You should not use knife to remove something delicate. Cleaning inside the tube, air pressure i think is the best not to contaminate the oil with lints.
Great video, my lockout has stopped working on my Rockshox recon sl forks, they also make a clunking noise when compressed will this service fix them or is something broken internally?
The lockout/damper is re assembled incorrectly, you must pre load the spring before you engage it to the valve, you know it's done properly as you can't turn the lockout with your fingers as the spring is too strong. He would have found that the lockout doesn't spring back after this service.

Very clinical and precise....5* video.Thankyou. I think I would have to draw the components on the bench so I could re-assemble correctly..I noticed a left hand thread on the damper internals Do you know if all Rockshox are like that ?
Když se to drhne pořád tím stejným hadrem, tak se tam akorát zadře špína. Takový špinavý hadr s prachem funguje jako brusná houba. I optik mi takhle podobně odřel brýle, nevěděl, že je v hadru prach. Hadr je nutné často - stále úzkostlivě prát a povrchy čistit postupně, ne najednou. Tady bych si kolo nechtěl nechat opravovat.

Great video- for the poploc/compression rebound damper service and rebuild, I have the identical one in my Silver TK. I’m having an issue where after reassembly of the damper in the fork, and re-attached cable to the spool (remote version) it is NOT locking out. I’m thinking I’ve messed something up with the reassembly of the sub components in the Compression Damper. Any help would be appreciated.
The best part about this video is that he is cleaning basically a brand new fork that already looks fresh so it looks effortless.
Yes, ineer parts are perfectly clean and new, makes no sense.
@SleepyclaN Zz most of the rust is on the crown race which you can replace. Whatever left that is on thr steering tube is minor. There is no problem
👍👍👍👍
Watching this video actually lowered my blood pressure, very relaxing n therapeutic.
A very thorough tutorial, and just goes to show how important front fork servicing really is. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Danny. To be honest - it is really rare for me to replace the seals on my forks. And the knife - it's my good old friend ;)
I will go to the bicycle engineer shop and say : SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY ! Do it for me 🤣🤣🤣

In the fork suspension in schwinn bikes I use baby oil 20ml each side. Work perfectly.
do not use oil for air springs, use calcium grease instread
do not remove rebound rod if all okay, because you can damage seal o-ring and oil from damper will leaks to the lowers while riding
