Thanks RJ you really saved me a few years back I moved to the Netherlands and needed to earn extra money for my family and fixing bikes to sell really saved me as I knew nothing about bikes.

I've been repairing bikes since I was a child. No-one taught me, and over time, mainly through trial and error, II earned a reputation for being able to fix almost anything. I don't drive because of my (adult) ADD, so have cycled almost everywhere in my life. Consequently I consider myself something of an expert. Not being arrogant or 'owt like that. It's just accrued knowledge over the last 45 years (I'm 51 now but like I said, been repairing bikes since a child). But dang it, this bloke always, and I mean *always* teaches me something I didn't know before. Brilliant. So thanks RJ, and I really mean that. I can imagine that something that took just a minute or so to fix in reality then becomes an hour or two when you add in setting up the camera, various tripod positioning, working the camera itself, all the way through to editing the video and posting it in here for us all to watch, be entertained by and learn something from. Nice one, thank you. 😊

I had my doubts that that fix would be that simple. But I did exactly as you explained, and my lock out for my shocks work again. Thank you so much.

I don't even have suntour forks. I just enjoy your videos.

Aaahh. I am really very grateful to you. I have had this fork for almost 2.5 years and everyone told me it was broken because it hadn't moved. thanks to you, it works perfectly now. lol 🤣

Thank you for this video I was able to repair my folks that were lock in a few minutes. Saving me money for replacing forks as the bike mechanic recommended.

Had the same issue with a slightly newer version of the fork you have in this video, but it worked a treat for me and fixed the lockout issue. Thanks a lot mate!

Thanks! 5 minutes of my life and now I have the lockout working again!

You are a life saver - I somehow lost the lockout lever and my forks have been stuck on no bounce - managed to sort it - Thankyou.

You're the man as always! You just saved me a lot of time and money! I thought I was going to have to rebuild it.

Thanks for the video. Thought 'someone' had broke my fork. 5 minutes after watching your video, I'm happily riding with a functioning lock out!

Amazing. Literally the easiest fix and its working again. Thanks

Thanks for the great video! The bike store said they couldn‘t repair it because it was very rusty and they told me to by a new one. I just sprayed some WD40 and I could repair it at home. Now it works perfectly fine :)

This was exactly what I was looking for! Cap fell off on a ride and when I tried to put it back on the lockout wasn’t working at all, needed a lot of tightening and now it’s perfect again. Thank you 👌

Another helpful video RJ thanks for the input. You really have covered so many subjects and saved people money and time. All the best Andy

Thank you very much RJ. 3 days back i told you my lockout was screwed and a video for that is already uploaded. Thank you very much!

Exactly what I was looking for and it worked perfectly. Thank you so much!!! Very helpful

Absolutely unblieable from bikeguy, I was just started the maintenance on this very same fork with my exact intention to service the lockout. Just went to turn on your channel and here you go... absolutely amazing and thanks again for your good work.

Thanks for the help! I had no idea what locking cap I needed and you helped me with shopping and installation. Thanks

Thanks for this RJ and for all the others that have taught me so much about my bikes.

Sorted my issue, you’re a life saver dude thank you so much for this video

Perfect how-to video. I was able to quickly fix the lockout on fork using the instructions.

I have this fork. I have this problem. I couldn't work out what was wrong and was going to buy a new fork. Your video popped up. I watched it. I still have this fork but I no longer have this problem! You're awesome. Thank you so much!

Fantastic thanks; fixed my lockout. Spindle was tricky to get out, as had rusted in. But coaxed out after few drops of light oil.

Thank you so much for these explanations ! I have just fixed my fork lockout

Helped me fix my lockout in under 5 mins! Thanks from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Thanks for the video! Saved me some time and money. Thought I would have to buy a new lockout lever. Now I know I can just use a 4mm allen wrench (shown at 1:00). No need to purchase a new lever just to have it fall off again.

Mate thank you so much I thought I was screwed my forks wouldn't go back soft man you have saved me was so stressed now I can hit trails again haha thankyou

Thank you very much for your support, I managed to repair my bike! greetings from Argentina.

This did the trick for my newly purchased (used) bike. Thanks a lot!

the blue lever is hard to remove ...while using a plastic thingy and also tried with screwdriver ..the lever almost got cracked and broken trying to remove it ..any other ways to remove it sir?

This guy has helped me twice I can’t tell you how thank ful I am of this video thanks mate your a like saver 👍👍😑

I'm glad that thru your video, you are able to help a lot of people. I also have the same issue with my suntour fork but unsuccessful so far to fix it. I had a hard bump with a rock on a rough road and since then, the lock out no longer works. When I watch this video, I though this would be the solution but no! the nut at the top could not be tightened, it just turn and turn.

this is why i'm a subscriber.something commonly on bikes needs fixing? RJ has covered it

Hey there, thank you for your guide! Bought a brand new bike but it has non working lockout. I even thought about refunding my bike but your video helped me not to do it. Thank you so much!

Thank you so much, took me ages to find an easy repair lol.

Excellent advice. Sorted out my son's forks! Thanks.

Simply brilliant and so helpful! Thank you so much.

Thanks RJ. Great vid and saved me a trip to the bike shop.

Thank you! Saved me a trip to the bike shop and took 2 mins to fix

Thank you for this vid i was worried i broke it because im a beginner in biking and i fixed my fork just by watching this vid! Thank you!

Dude thank you!!! My Raidon fork started making weird noises yesterday (unbearable to ride with) every time I compressed or released the fork. It was like a clicking / creaking with a bit of play and sounded like something needed to be oiled. I contacted suntour and was told the noise was normal and to keep riding. Naturally I took the whole fork apart (which I needed to do anyway to increase travel to 120mm). I put the fork back together and still had the same noise! It was so bad that I really contemplated not being able to ride with this fork and if I should look for another one. After watching every video online about this fork I came across yours. Sure enough the Allan key bolt under the lockout wheel was completely loose and there was grease all over. I tightened it and the noise went away. Thank you!!!!

Thank you for a great troubleshooting video! I will need the cartridge but at least I know what to expect!

Thank you so much my forks came factory without a working lockout and this fixed it.

Great video! Bought a used bike and this was the fix! Thank you so so much 👍
