Just remember to grease it, WD40 isn't lubricant :)
Yogesh Naik es un porquería
Good

For everyone who's watching, he did it all correctly except for that he forgot to grease it properly at the end (WD40 does not serve as Grease).
Bike suspensions should always use non rubber corrosive greases like Calcium Grease with almost always type 2 grease viscosity.
Nice video, bye bye!
Hi, I've just a bike with these forks, do they not need any fork oil?
Hi, do you know where to get those other than a bike shop?
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I am converting a couple old bikes into a dirt jumper bike and I needed suspension for heavy landings. I used this video and it saved my life as I was going to buy a new suspension fork but I used the video and saved at least a hundred bucks
Thank you so much for this video. It helped me restore an old mountain bike so I can get into the sport! You helped me get into the sport of mountain biking and I probably wouldn’t have been able to do it without you.
Thank you man!You just helped a 12 year old mtb enthusiast to make his suspensions softer!thank you so much!
He didnt grease it
@@Kemo-sc7nt I can do that lol
@@peterpopovics9901 do it then dont use wd40 for greasing PLEASE use it to clean
@@sbek1386 WD40 have whole asortiman of products from basic lubricants and cleaners to high end Lithium lubricants etc etc we pessants call WD 40 just one product - universal one ..
Thanks for posting, just bought my son a 2nd hand mtb bike and the forks are stiff. This is really useful.

I had the exact same problem, this video helped a lot :) my mountain bike suspension is working like new again
Super good job! Thanks for posting that.
Thanks very much . I was searching for such a video . my suspension was stuck for years..
I just want to say thank you!! my trek 4 series hardly moved, now it good as new!!! thank you!
Nathan McDonald You welcome mate! Keep Riding
You gotta grease it. You
Can't just slap it back together with only WD40
This is very helpful - have not seen the insides of front forks before - thank very much for sharing!
All fork instructions say Don't ever use WD40 on them. It swells seals and causes damage. Only use Correct grease
I was about to say that. You can almost hear the cry from help as he compressed 😂
very timely that YT recommend this vid. 👍🏽👊👏
That was fantastic!!! Just what I was looking for! Thanks dude!
Wow this is owesom I ben looking for a video with out much chit- chat. Just this video is perfect. And believe me a learn and fix my bike 100%. Thank you very much 😊
I’m a beginner, and this definitely super helpful
Learning is very easy with ur instructions. Thanks.
Thank you. You saved my bike!
Thanks Bro Very Helpful,,,,Saved My $$$
mantap gan tutorial videonya.. besok langsung dicoba, di fork suntour xcr ane.. 😁
Bro this helped me Soo much. Thank you!
thanx its helped a lot for my friend😊👍subscribed 😊😊
Thanks very much, well done.
Thank you for the video. Please telk me this: what's the size of wrench you used to remove the top cap of the fork? Thanks
Thanks for showing this mate 👍
Thanks man for the help!!!:D
You missed the grease.
Edgardo Infante yes I did...all I had at the time was WD40
Thanks for the video. I did the same yesterday with my fork and used your technique to clean the spaces between the fork and the tubes with a rug and a stick. Happy riding :)
Edgardo Infante That's it man!!! Keep Riding🤘🏻
Thanks for this. I have just bought a teflon grease and wondering where exactly i should apply it to my fork?
Jones Tizmo Just apply the grease on all moving parts and work is done
If you don't have grease to hand Don't use WD40 use something like a wet chain lube if you have to. It'll protect the moving parts far better than a thin, solvent based oil which will dry out quickly and leave everything unprotected.
Better still, wait until you have a dedicated suspension grease!
Super video! Many thanks
IT is very helpful for me because I’m a new biker and I’m reapering old bikes
We had the same fork bro. Now I can definitely clean mine
Thank you the video was so halpful
Great vid, only change is the WD-40 for final lube. It is mostly kerosene not a lubricant and evaporates. Need to add a lite lube at the assembly. Great work.
Very useful this video.. thanks
Very helpful, thank you.
Fácil rápido y sencillo...no sabía pero aprendí😮🙂
This is the most useful vid I seen in years ,.. really helpful
Please don't use this video as it will probably cause more cost that if you ask a professional
Love the old school GT and Giant bikes😍👍
Very helpful & Thanks.
Hi i notice u pull one one side for cleaning, the side that is use for adjustment. How about the other side? Anyway to open it?
Does this video applies to all basic suntour sus? I happen to have an old bike GT avalanche
Pls advise thank you you
videoclipul acesta m-a facut sa-mi doresc mai mult sa-mi pun furca pe fata cu suspensii :)
Thank you so much for sharing 👍🏻
Nicely done. I was thinking you were about to grease it and then forgot about it. I'd maybe spray white lithium grease down the fork.
Jesus no it would destroy the lowers as they are made out of magnesium, Always use suspension grease
nice work
Im going to have to do this to a giant i just got from a coworker glad i found this vid
Beej W make sure you use fork oil
At this point I would replace the fork 😂. So much trouble for a fork that will at some point need replacing. But besides that it's a great video. Keep up the good work
nice work m8. A piece of practical advice. When you spray WD40 on an item and then plan to clean it with a rug, better to hold the rug behind it durig spray, in order to avoid making a mess around and not waste lubricant material
Thank you . from korea
I have a specialized mycha 26. It Has the original forks on it (XCT-V3) .. they are basically the same as these. Am I able to stiffen them up? It's made for someone the weighs much less than me..
Druze jel mogu sve to isto uraditi na tori 318 solo air.Jedan stap ulje drugi vazduh necu napraviti problem da iscuri ulje ili vazduh i dali je na kraju podmazivanje stapova samo wd-om.Hvala na video ako je sve to tako da uradim sam da ne dajem pare servisu...pocelo da mi se cuje da cakne kad propadne amortizer unutra malo dublje...hvala joy jednom
Great video! Nice one! :))
it's very good job thank you
Did you do both sides of the suspension or just the lock side?
Excellent!!! 🌟🚲
what do you recommend for the grease fork or wd40
Helpful video 👍
Nice! thanks..... I have Spinner Grind shocks on a Marin Pioneer Trail I just picked up. I don't know if they are air or spring. I guess I'll find out!! I'll ask at my LBS today.
If they are air on the bottom of the fork there will be a cap that u can turn if u want the fork to get out faster or slower
good vid but what if you have a cheap RADcamo mtb i tried to take the tops off the forks and a bit of plastic broke off
Thank you, very helpful video👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
TheTorkerman-Adam Thanks mate!
Riders PT just did this on my sons Suntour XcR, worked great, i mean they are pretty shit forks that have loads of play in the bushings, but at least he can ride now while we save for new forks, thanks again.
I have a question that i would really want answered. My bike's front oil suspension was recently changed and one day while i was doing wheelies my bike's suspension maxed and from then when i try to do a manual or a bunny hop or whenever i try to lift my front wheel it makes a loud noise. I searched it on both Google and RUclips but i didn't find anything. If you know how can i solve this problem i would really appreciate it
Nice one idol 👍🚴♂️🚴♂️💕
If you ride all the time is it necessary to replace it?Or you only do that when you haven't ride for a long time?
Can this fork fit in the hero ranger bicycle
super idea
Hooo. Thank you for your help full video
i did mine today it was full of rusty water so after cleaning i loaded it up with grease i guess it will help keep water out
Don’t wipe the grease out tho it will attract dust
@@alvierisolorio1791 he did put grease wdym?
Con lo que limpio es una desegrasante?
Y no le echa grasa?
I'm gonna try tomorrow!!!
Super good job👍👍👍👍👍👍
you forgot to grease the coil side that will make the most difference
I_ti Multumesc Foarte Mult pentru Acest Vidio.Rezolvat probleba Datorita Tie.
you should use some sort of silicone based grease to lube the fork lowers , and sometimes the seals need to be replaced to stop water from getting in the fork and cause rust
life saver! legit
Does it work with Huffy Rock Creek Kolo bikes too?
This is very usefull video
thx ..it worked...no longer seized !...... BTW...dont you need to clean the air spring too?
Those forks aren’t air
Ossom bro love you
thanks for this video
Thank you for this
what is the recorder on the shock edzover how to use that????
I purchased a new Aventon Level E Bike in Mar 2022, it has the cheap
zoom fork, after about 2 weeks the front fork makes a clunk sound when
going over some bumps and it's
pissing me off, it does not do this when it's locked out though, does
anyone know what the issue is? Or even an upgrade fork the would fit
this bike? Thanks John
