  • Leak or rebuild time....should be inflated with dry nitrogen ;)

  • Rebuild time… I guess it had been this low since I bought it two years ago, I was too green to know better. Should be 142 by the manual but people have gone up to 180psi according to online posts.

    Dry nitrogen yes!! However, I’ve filled it with the little shock pump, to see if it will hold the air.

    Hoping that it will hold the air okay, and I can maybe just ask somewhere with a dry nitrogen tank to refill it and avoid a rebuild for a few more months.

    If I rebuild, I need to order the gold valve and other bling bits from USA - that means a delay of weeks at least.

  • No idea about rebuild time but suspect it is diyable. Might be cheaper just to but a new shock.

    Was told that moisure in the air can damage the shocks, so used to refill them at tyre places that filled car tyres with nitrogen, cheapest accessable source.
