  1. Thanks for the feedback much appreciated.
  2. Thanks for the feedback much appreciated.
  3. Hi all,not sure if this topic has been covered by someone yet? Can you run the new Shimano 12 speed set up but running a Sunrace cassette and using an alternative chainring ,not Shimano specific. Obviously you loose the cassette range which Shimano offers on their cassette. It has been mentioned to me that their chains have a different pitch and will prematurely wear out any non specific Shimano 12 speed components, is this true? If so then to use an alternative chain other than Shimano if that is the case. My plan was to just do an upgrade kit on shifter, derailleur and chain and using the current Sunrace 11-50 cassette and my current crank with chainring. Thanks.
  4. Thanks, one would think that because Cyclelab stocks them they would at least keep some of the spares. Have you seen or heard of any frame issues with the frames cracking. Obviously no frame is excluded in this depending on how you treat the bike. Any news/history of frame cracking..?
  5. 2018, vertical shock mount.
  6. Hi all. One does see them much for sale or get too many up to date reviews. KTM scarp (prestige) frames has anyone encountered any major issues with them?
  7. Thanks Droo.. I think it's time. This will allow me to ride tomorrow but i will get hold of a service kit.. don't mind pulling it apart to service... thanks for the reply and advice.
  8. Ok... so I release the air on fork and in the removing the damper on the top of fork there was a release of air, removed the damper cartridge and slowly compressed the fork, which was previously not possible. Reassembled it. Pumped it up to pressure and the damper is now engaging as it should be.. Not exactly sure what was possibly stuck or if it was possibly the air that was causing the problem.. Seems to be ok now.
  9. Will pull the damper out the top and see how much oil is in. Will revert back if I can find out what is causing the issue.
  10. When I put the lock out on it locks the fork when I release the lock out I only have half of the travel
  11. Revelation RL 120m solo air 2014- 2016 model. Lower leg is the only oil I have replaced 5ml in lower legs per leg, according to Spec sheet. The previous self services I did everything was working all ok, just this time it has decided to give me grief.
  12. Hi BaGear.. I have serviced the fork 4 times on the lower legs only,replace oil,foam seal only and didn't open up the damper so those levels should be ok. I have done similar services on Fox shock and other Rockshox models and never had this issue after the lower leg service.
  13. Hopefully someone else has had a similar problem. Serviced the lower legs on fork as per usual. After putting it all back together as per normal, I do notice that I am unable to compress the fork totally, it only goes halfway and then stops. Makes no difference if the fork has air in or not. I do find that if I turn the damper dial on bottom of the fork from min to max in increments and pump the fork the damper doesn't seem to "engage" at all. I.E. I dont get that sucking sound when it engages. I remove the casing from the stations again and I tried to push the damper "tube" back into the fork and it only goes halfway. It kinda equals the same amount of travel i am getting when it all assembled. I hope all of the above makes sense. Justin.
  14. Thanks for your reply... might be a safer option in the long run to have to look at a different wheelset then. Possibly Fulcrum or Rapide.
