Chrisjanopsyfiets Posted October 16, 2021 Share Not true…. Synthetic motor oil is a perfectly acceptable alternative. Just a matter of viscosity Edited October 16, 2021 by Chrisjanopsyfiets dasilvarsa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a matter of viscosity Sure, if you are not concerned with voiding any warranties, or reselling it in the future, go for it. You should however not expect advise here contrary to best practices.

dasilvarsa Posted October 16, 2021 Share Fox used 10wt until 5 years ago then they changed to 20wt. Apparently the 20wt sticks better to the Slider Bushings. Many use Motor Oil and some Professional Fork Service Persons in RSA Swear by the Magnatec Fully Synthetic. Mobil 1 is also preferred and Highly Recommended in the States. The Problem with RS and Fox Products is that the LBS does not stock. Edited October 17, 2021 by dasilvarsa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
