    That's going to help loads of people, THIS is the best type of tech video, simple and straight to the point. Wish I had these around when I started instead of winging it til I self taught myself the trickier bits. Worth mentioning the mrp ramp control cartridge too it's an amazing upgrade for volume spacer settings on the fly.

    Literally the vid I have been looking for this week! I wanna change the amount of volume spacers in my fork and I was like: hmmm, I am sure Gmbn tech has a vid about that.

    You can also use an adjustable spanner, as long as it’s good quality and doesn’t have play in the jaws. It’s what I use!

    I am doing that today! I would give it a clean with a rag or towel first… wouldn’t want dirt getting in there, cheers!!

  • @karlosxzy

    Great video. Just bought a new Fox Factory 36 fork and wasn't sure how to install the spacers properly. Nice easy job. Shame the proper socket tool is so outrageously expensive!

    Could you guys do more on Öhlins Rxf 36 m2 fork and Ttx2 air shock? Would love to learn more. Thank you!! Amazing content nonetheless

    Cool vid, I din't know about cycling the fork at low pressure to equalise +ve and -ve air chamber pressures. If you want to make your own top cap socket though, I wouldn't use a 12-sided socket for this. The top caps are alloy (or even plastic sometimes) with really shallow hexes; soft material + lack of surface area = easy to round them off so you need to adapt a 6-sided one like the Fox one shown. 12-sided sockets are more suited to cars and stuff where fasteners are difficult to reach
