Great channel. Really like your style of giving extra parcels of information beyond the main purpose of the video i.e. when to repair vs change out fork stanchions that are damaged.

Thank you very much for such a gracious comment and I'm glad to hear that you found the video helpful. If you have any questions on servicing the fork let me know and I'll do my best to answer them.

[@ryanbailey5167]

Awesome! great job sir :) Thanks for it :)

[@zoubtube]

Glad to hear you found the video helpful. if it's one fork that loves a regular service, this is it. night and day imo. keep on top of it and she will treat you just fine! 😉

[@ThunderStruckMTB]

Awesome job!! Looking forward to the Charger 3.

[@zoubtube]

You and me both! 😁 if all goes well it'll be posted real soon. I wanted to post it last month, but so many delays with all the issues we've been going through these past two months

When reassembling the lowers, you mentioned checking for negative pressure.
If you did have negative pressure, what would’ve caused it, and what would you do to fix it?
Glad to see a new video, although I did say no pressure 😊

[@zoubtube]

Installing the air spring into the upper tube without making sure all the parts are pushed to the top of the piston prior to installing it will typically allows air into the negative chamber. The quickest and easiest way to solve it at that point is to reinstall the air spring. 👍

Hi. Thank you very much for the quality of your videos. Good video. High quality image and explication. Do you think to do SUNTOUR SR service ?

[@zoubtube]

Thanks for the comment. Sure. I'll make a video on the suntour the next time I come across one

[@anthonymayr2857]

Great video! What soft jaws are you using?

[@zoubtube]

Glad you liked the video and thanks for watching it. The soft jaw is a rockshox reverb vise block, but it is STUPID expensive now. I bought it a few years ago for about 1/3 the price than it sells for now. what I did find is the following which might actually work out better. I'm contemplating getting it.

[@zoubtube]
