Hi I was hoping to get some advice on my shock.
It’s about 4 months old, had it from new. After about three rides there was quite s bit of gunk around the o ring on the stanchion. I’m assuming this is oil and dirt. So cleaned it up.
Thinking it may have just been overfilled or something I carried on riding for about another two months but after every ride the same gunk would be back.
It now has no lock out, it used to work real well. I also have to pump it up to 330 psi to get it to sit at 25% sag, I’m 85 kg. This is way more than I used to put it in. I normally ran 20% but I don’t want to add more psi as the max is 350.
I sent it off under warranty to get it checked. I assumed the oil seal was faulty but They seem to think It was fine but the air seal was faulty. They replaced the air seal. So I chucked the shock back on but the same result when I pumped it up and still no lock out.
Just want to check with you guys if This sounds like any issues you have had before. I want to call Rockshox back but thought I would just check I’m not missing something.
Cheers
Chris
