Thank you , for this great video. I'm currently rebuilding a Trek Top Fuel 8 2010 ( which I bought second hand.... and in a terrible state )...... it has original rockshox reba sl dual air..... and they're in desperate need, of a service, and replacing seals ,oil ,decals .... everything. This video, is very informative and everything explained brilliantly. I will definitely share it with my friends and I will certainly check out your other posts ...... thank you,
Good work, very easy to follow each step and it's helpful that you wrote all the numbers (ml of oil) as a caption. Just one thing, oil shouldn't go into the ordinary drain ;)
thank you!!!! I have the same reba (SL not RL but its the same I guess) and now thanks to your video I can finally service my fork by myself. Cheers und danke ! :D
you did a rebuild to your reba race recently? If so, did you buy new components for the fork or did you just rebuild your old components? And do you by chance have a link for where i can buy the internal components? thanks in advance mate!
It was not my fork. The customer asked for oil change. Fork has no oil or air leak for sure and we decide to only change oil. I think you can search spare parts on chainreactioncycles or ebay. Cheers!
Good video, considering performing the maintenance on my Rockshox Reba Race 2007 myself after seeing this. For some reason the pressure fitting on the bottom of my fork will not hold pressure any more. (Any thoughts?) I am wondering though, why you didn't buy a rebuilt seal kit since the forks probably have not been serviced in a long time and the oil is brown? Only $15-$20. additional. Also, adding your voice talking about what is more difficult and any more information helps a lot. The music is good but voice describing what is actually happening helps tremendously. A list of tools needed, long sockets, 24mm socket (Especially a torque wrench, 2.8 - 16.4 NM, since I don't know the specific torque settings for each of the bolts I am guessing at the torque range.) for the service and torque setting for each the fittings would be of great use and take the guessing out of everything.
Thank you for your review of this tutorial. Repair kit was not used because all seals and o-rings is in good condition(no oil leaks, no air leaks and etc) BTW my customer add pressure in this fork around 5 years ago and ride his bike till this service. Oil becomes dark really fast because of oxydation, not dirt or any things. All your suggestions which you gave i'll try to use in the next videos. P.S. Only special tool i use was axe!
I highly recommend to use Nitril gloves when doing the service! The mineral oil from the motion control is highly aggressive to the skin and I needed 2 weeks of treatment for the rash on my hands.
I purchased my fork used, with servicing done 2 years ago. Upon removing the lower legs, lots of oil poured out. What do I replace to fix this? Or is that something that normally happens over time and I should simply refill the oil?
For this fork it's not normal when lower legs full of oil. When lower seal is bad in cartridge leg, oil from cartridge pushes down to lower leg. You can do oil change as needed and test your fork. May be previous owner done service wrong.
@@AXRV88 Thank you for the reply. I have replaced the oil in the uppers and it's working better after drainage! How does one add oil to the bottoms of the fork? It's a 2007 Reba SL btw so not sure if its any different from yours. On the damper side it fits only about 3ml before overflowing, and on the air spring side, the schrader valve is in the way.
You're welcome, Steven! To add oil in lowers, you need to stand your forks upside down and just a little bit pull lovers to open holes for bolt and nut which holds lowers and uppers together. For lowers lubrication i add ~10ml of 20W it both legs.
Thank you! Just did this for my Reba RLT. Manual says I need 123ml of oil in the top chamber but that was way too much and a lot came out again. Still works though... I tried to extend the fork further but it was at maximum. Odd.
You're welcome, Dennis! May be RLT version needs less oil? In these forks you need to add oil level just to touch compresion cartridge. Otherwise your forks will not at it all travel. The best way to measure how much oil you need is to measure length of compression cartridge and plus to it around 5mm. Then you have to put ruler inside of oil leg and add oil to the level of measured cartridge. Good luck!
@@AXRV88 Hey thanks for the reply! Armed with that knowledge, I redid the damper-side. On my REBA RLT 90mm fork from 2011 it is necessary to oil-fill the top damper chamber while the suspension is at maximum extension, that's obvious, but since maximum extension on the dual-air side is less than on the damper side, definitely don't have the nut installed so you can reach maximum on the oil-side. That might have been my mistake, or maybe I didn't pull hard enough for full extension. So I double-checked 123ml several times online, and when I filled I also used your measure-method as a backup and it all correlated. DONE! Thanks :-)
I'm glad to know that you revealed this mystic problem! 👍 This method works great. Sometimes when i do service, manuals not needed. I use this thrusty simple method and it works but not with all forks. P.S. Dennis, if you are interested in my methods, you may watch another forks videos on my channel 😉 And please, share my videos with your friends. It will help me a lot. Cheers!
Hello, Jesus! I don't know what type of seals here, because we didn't replace them. About sponges, it is not 10mm. They are thinner. If you chose between 5 mm or 10 mm, it will be definitely 5mm
I’ve recently bought a set of these shocks that have been serviced but the remote lock out lever was lost by previous owner. Do you know what lever is required for the forks as need to get one? Great video btw, will definitely come in handy for me!
Ian, I think you can google this remote lock specially for your fork and shock. There are too many models now days to remember them all. I'm glad my video is handy for you!
Thank you for this video! I have a question about a Rockshox SID carbon (Blackbox tech) fork. I cannot find how much air goes into the negative valve (bottom of the fork). Is it really negative or just differential regarding the positive pressure at the top of the fork? (150 PSI for me as per my weight, 200 lbs) . And if so, what is the range as per my weight? Thanks!!!
Hello, Rodrigo! I prefer to setup negative spring this way, First you need to pressurise positive fork for your weight. When you sit on bike, forks sag may be around 10-15% of all travel. By this measurement you can find correct air pressure for your weight. Then you need to pressurise negative spring just a little bit lower than positive spring. Than more you pressurise negative spring than more fork sensitive is. I hope this information will help you. Good luck!
Привет , у меня в motion control блокировке , сам синий включатель , когда его поворачиваешь , возвращается назад из за чего блокировка не включается , при этом если ее включить и держать , не давая вернуться в начальное положение , то блокировка работает , что может быть не так ? Может там чего то не хватать или же он сломан
Привет. Твоя вилка расчитана на включение блокировки с руля. Без ручки не получится включать блокировку. Можно на барахолках поискать картридж который работает без ручки на руле. Лучше найти ручку блокировки.
@@AXRV88 все , понял , спасибо большое так и думал , потому что на второй вилке включается и без манетки , там получается гидравлический локаут , а не от тросика , тот который от тросика продаю и не хотелось , что бы оказалось , что он сломан, спасибо ещё раз , удачи
Hello, unfortunately my damper is broken, is there any other that would fit this shock? I was thinking about Rockshox Judy tk tunrkey damper but I dont know if it fit 😕 if anyone could help
Hello. I can't give some advises that will be 100% accurate now, but as i know cartridges differs by upper leg diameter and lenght. By using this info, you can search for forks that similar with yours by these parameters and try it to fit. Hope this info will help.
I have a 2007 reba that is in desperate need of service, is it basically the same as this? I cant find a service manual online, maybe I havent looked hard enough. And any idea what seal kit I'd need I'm a bit clueless
Thanks for being a video creator to explain this process! My Reba forks went totally soft last week so I'm thinking of giving this process a go. In terms of oil - does it have to be fork oil or does any 5w,15w do the job? Also, do I need a specialised gauge for the air pressure or would a normal foot pump gauge work? Also, can you clean everything with water or should you flush with oil and petrol? Thanks!
Brian, You're welcome! Yes 5w and 15w will work good. 5w inside cartridge and 15w inside of lower legs. About washing with water and soap... theoreticaly you can do this, but it can cause oxidation on raw aluminum inside of lower legs. The best way to clean parts is brake cleaner spray. Do it on open air. Foot pump can do the job only if you will pressurise fork up to 5bar. Foot pump make big air flow, but it can't do big pressure. Good luck with your fork service! P.S. Please share this video with your friends in social media, it will help my channel alot. Btw look inside the bike repair playlist on my channel. I think you can find more interesting information there.
I have the 120mm travel one... and the pain it is to loosen the 10mm inside the lower leg is unspeakable! Is this the dual air version, i didn't se you remove the air from the bottom valve?
@Mikkel Thomsen First you need to do is remove air from both chambers + and - . Then remove upper cap and push with something on air piston. Now you can unscrew bottom 10mm nut with ease.
@@AXRV88 Problem is on the 120 mm dual air you have the airvalve and then 8 cm down that you have the nut you need to loosen. It really is a pain to get down there. I went out an bought a 1/2" 10mm socket and i bearly gets down there.
Hi dude, thanks for your video. Almost completed the procedure, something weird is happening : after I fill the cartridge side with the 150ml, the fork is really rigid (impossible to compress), but there's no air in it. Any pointers? Thanks
Hello, Felix. Maybe compression cartridge is blocked? Air is a spring. But for rigidness your fork has a compression cartridge which is block cartridge. Try to turn knobs on it.
@@AXRV88 Thanks for your quick answer. I did check the compression cartridge, it seems to be working fine when removed from the fork. But when I put it back and tighten it, the knob still turns, but it seems to be blocked in some way, because I have to apply more force to make it turn, and it won't go back to it's original place on it's own. Still, the fork won't fully compress, and I'm sure the knob is on the "unlocked" position. Also, it says on the Rock Shox oil chart that for the damper on the reba sl you need 123ml of 5wt?? It already seems like a lot with your 110ml, I first thought that I put too much oil for it to be able to compress, but apparently no.
@@AXRV88 There, fixed it! Tried first with 50ml, closed it, it compressed, then up to 100, and finally 110ml. And the compression knob works fine, too. Not sure what was the problem though, but it works, so yay! Thanks again
If your fork have any travel spacers, they sit on spring side piston rod right after piston. Than longer fork tavel than less rigidity of fork. I do not recommend you to increase fork travel.
Hi, Dein Video ist sehr informativ. Toll, dass es für mein fatmodul SXO3 genau das ist, was ich gesucht habe. Wie ist es denn, wenn ich nur den Staubschutzring austauschen muss? Muss ich danach auch den Ölservice durchführen? Grüße aus München
Hallo Omid! Nach dem Ersetzen des Kofferraums müssen Sie das Öl in der Stopfenpatrone nicht mehr wechseln. Ersetzen Sie einfach den Kofferraum (Öldichtung), montieren Sie die Gabel und geben Sie Öl hinzu, um die Gabelbeine zu schmieren. Wenn Sie das Öl in der Patrone längere Zeit nicht gewechselt haben, lohnt es sich, es ebenfalls auszutauschen. Ich entschuldige mich für die Qualität der Übersetzung ins Deutsche (ich benutze Google Übersetzer).
Whats your advice for someone who wants to be a fork mechanic, though does not know where to start. Also what tools are essential and does any kind of fork oil works?(brand) Thanks! I would really appreciate if you reply 😊
It's a good question, Alan. I work with forks and shock around 10 years and basic tools are a good sockets, hex keys, set of wrenches and oil brand no matters, but I prefer synthetic oil. And of course you need lots of patience and time. Good luck!
Hello, Daniel! I think you can try to add a little bit of oil to check, why block is not working. If problem will not disapear, remove compression cartridge and look at the bottom when you are turning the knob. If you will not see any movement, then i think your cartridge need to be repaired. May be local bike shop can help you.
Good Video, BUT... do you know that 1 drop of oil is contaminating 600 liters of water...and the canalisation pipes are not teally tight.. better close your sink next time! Greets
Joco, if you watch video more closely, you can see that this fork has oil seal (which black) and dust seal (which grey). Good fork, I like it. ruclips.net/video/tYyZ9ynPlG8/видео.htmlm38s
If your fork has oil leak and air leak, I think the best way is buy full rebuild kit for your model and change all o-rings and seals. In this video you can see overview of internals.
Thanks for the great video. Old thread I know but can you or anyone link me a proper rebuild kit for a 2008 Reba race carbon. Seems like their are different kits and not sure what all I need
Hello, Steve! Thanks for kind words. About rebuild kit I know not much, but maybe this link can help you find parts for your fork www.bike24.com/1.php?content=8;product=130953;menu=1000,2,121;page=100
Hallo Leute, ich bin selber gerade beim Service, von daher sind solche Videos immer sehr hilfreich. Aber eines kann ich hier wirklich nicht sehen, bzw ich muss es sogar anprangern. Den Service mit Mineral-Öl etc. über ner Spüle zu machen deren Abfluss vermutlich in die Kanalisation geht ist in meinen Augen sträflich! Sicher, es gibt keine Explosion, kein Feuer, ich tu mir dabei nicht weh, niemand sieht es... Alles richtig. Aber unser gutes Wasser mit Absicht mit Mineralöl zu verunreinigen, da fehlen mir die Worte. Vielleicht sollten diejenigen die meinen das wäre nicht so schlimm ihr Lieblingsgetränk einfach mal mit einem Tropfen Mineralöl zu sich nehmen. Viel Spaß dabei! Also bitte - vielleicht nicht drüber nachgedacht, das kann ich noch nachvolziehen.. Aber bitte macht so etwas nicht nach. Tut es nicht! Wir werden eher Probleme mit Wasser bekommen als es uns lieb ist. Öl und ölige Lappen gehören nicht ins Grundwasser, den Boden oder in den Restmüll! Richtiger Weise separat entsorgt beim Wertstoffhof/Entsorgungsbetrieb. Danke für die Aufmerksamkeit!
Hallo Heinz! Danke für deinen Kommentar, freut mich, dass dir mein Video gefallen hat! Deinem Kommentar stimme ich zu 100 Prozent zu, allerdings habe ich diese Frage bereits unter diesem Video beantwortet. Die Spüle ist nicht mit dem Abfluss verbunden. Unter der Spüle steht ein Eimer. Heutzutage ist meine Küche zu einer Werkstatt geworden, es gibt also kein Abwassersystem.

Thanks for the great video. Old thread I know but can you or anyone link me a proper rebuild kit for a 2008 Reba race carbon. Seems like their are different kits and not sure what all I need
Hello, Steve! Thanks for kind words. About rebuild kit I know not much, but maybe this link can help you find parts for your fork www.bike24.com/1.php?content=8;product=130953;menu=1000,2,121;page=100
There are kits for Reba 2006-2008 and for Reba 2010-current.
Hallo Leute, ich bin selber gerade beim Service, von daher sind solche Videos immer sehr hilfreich.
Aber eines kann ich hier wirklich nicht sehen, bzw ich muss es sogar anprangern.
Den Service mit Mineral-Öl etc. über ner Spüle zu machen deren Abfluss vermutlich in die Kanalisation geht ist in meinen Augen sträflich!
Sicher, es gibt keine Explosion, kein Feuer, ich tu mir dabei nicht weh, niemand sieht es...
Alles richtig.
Aber unser gutes Wasser mit Absicht mit Mineralöl zu verunreinigen, da fehlen mir die Worte.
Vielleicht sollten diejenigen die meinen das wäre nicht so schlimm ihr Lieblingsgetränk einfach mal mit einem Tropfen Mineralöl zu sich nehmen.
Viel Spaß dabei!
Also bitte - vielleicht nicht drüber nachgedacht, das kann ich noch nachvolziehen..
Aber bitte macht so etwas nicht nach.
Tut es nicht!
Wir werden eher Probleme mit Wasser bekommen als es uns lieb ist.
Öl und ölige Lappen gehören nicht ins Grundwasser, den Boden oder in den Restmüll!
Richtiger Weise separat entsorgt beim Wertstoffhof/Entsorgungsbetrieb.
Danke für die Aufmerksamkeit!
Hallo Heinz!
Danke für deinen Kommentar, freut mich, dass dir mein Video gefallen hat!
Deinem Kommentar stimme ich zu 100 Prozent zu, allerdings habe ich diese Frage bereits unter diesem Video beantwortet.
Die Spüle ist nicht mit dem Abfluss verbunden. Unter der Spüle steht ein Eimer. Heutzutage ist meine Küche zu einer Werkstatt geworden, es gibt also kein Abwassersystem.
what if i used 15 w oil on the compression cartrige istead of 5w?
If you fill your fork with 15w oil, you get lack of sensitivity.
When i air out the bottom air, it starts leaking oil, is that normal? Pls someone help
It is normal, if it leaks only when you drop the pressure from minus air. Because there is some oil or grease for lubing stanchions.
@@AXRV88 oh yea thank you so much man i though something was wrong with my fork anyways thank you for the detailed video i wish you best of luck!
@evgenkata5358, You're welcome!👍

Hello. What oils and greas i need?
Hello, Miki. The best choice is rockshox fork fluids. But you can use the same oil like i use in this video.
@@AXRV88 only one oil? Do i need any geese?
Of course no. You need to use cartridge oil for cartridge and thick oil for lower legs and for impregnate foam circles in the near of seals.
@@AXRV88 Thanks.
You're welcome, Miki

There should be a separate channel for videos with $#@& subtitles. Maybe call it Helltube.
