Left seal blown on new rockshox revelation

[Joeldanleat]

Hi guys

 

I just recently got a new fork for my hardtail a few days ago. Then during a ride the left seal popped out and my fork lost all pressure.

Any ideas what might of caused this and how to fix it?

[BaGearA]

air somehow leaked past the seal head ( probably the negative chamber) into the lowers , since you say the fork is new the dust wipes probably seal quite good around the stanchions 

 

this led to A build up of pressure in the lower legs which forced out the seal

 

 

If the fork is indeed new this should be fixed under warranty no questions asked

Take it back to where you bought it as you said it is new, should be sorted under warranty

Had similar problem with a Reba something to do with air leaking pass something. If it's new send it back I had to buy a complete airspring for the part needed and was quite expensive.

As mentioned take back if new, if bought second hand get it serviced or just do it yourself. I got my dual air reba to hold air after it popped the wiper as well.

Happened to my Reba yesterday. Definitely an air leak.

Failure of the Air Chamber "o" rings, Maybe perished or lacking lubrication.

Maybe the fork was stored for a long time.

Cold weather does not help either as Oils and Greases don't work as well in cold weather.
