As a car mechanic I’d never dream of trying something like this, taking the spring off a strut alone can put a hole in your brick wall haha, think I might change career choices.

The premise was pretty much the same on the fox 34 I had. I bought a new airshaft to bump the travel up 10mm. I don't think I "needed" any special tools. It did have grease and oil though! I had to buy some specific tools to work on my Manitou fork though! Really like tooling on my bikes!

Hi, thank you for the video. Are you sure you're going from 150mm to 140mm? I can't seem to find a 140mm shaft; even though I want to switch from 160mm to 140mm, the smallest airshaft on the market is 150mm.

great video! can you sell the 150mm air shaft to me if you dont need it.

Получается air shaft можно разобрать и укоротить на токарном станке..?

@jongoverthebars3572 2 ай бұрын

Technically other than changing the airshaft. What you did was a full service on the fork? correct?

@ToogyHowser 2 ай бұрын

more of a lower leg service

Hello, I have the same bike, I don't like the fork at all, you have tried Sr Suntour, what do you think of Zeron or Aion, they have an excellent price, is it worth the change?

@ToogyHowser Жыл бұрын

What did you hate about the stock fork? I didn't find it bad. I'm currently running a SR Suntour Durolux 36 and loving it. I have no experience with the Aion or Zeron unfortunately.

This is great, unfortunately, if i buy an air shaft from suntour, price doubles because of the shipping. 😢

How to 100mm travel, for example using on mtb slopestyle suntour forks

@ToogyHowser Жыл бұрын

I have been told by Suntour you can get airshafts as low as 100mm for the Durolux

What if we have an older xc fork that leaks......

@ToogyHowser Жыл бұрын

which model?

@nostr8ghtlinzs596 11 ай бұрын

@ToogyHowser sorry for the late reply. XCR, seems like it will not hold more than 60 psi. Any idea? I brought it up to 90 today, and after a few minutes of riding back down. It needs to cleaned for sure.

@downtoridemtb Жыл бұрын

So strange that there is no oil. I wonder how a Rockshox or Fox would perform without oil.

@mtbboy1993 Жыл бұрын

It would be interesting to have an explanation why Sr Suntour opted for this. Maybe for ease of service. Seems like they are going for ease of service.

@ToogyHowser Жыл бұрын

I'm not sure, but it really does make service easier and less intimidating.

@RyhnoMight 4 ай бұрын

I thought it still requires 80wt oil on both legs?? Or is that just the Aion?
