- This video is a 200 service guide for a Rockshox Ultimate RCT C1 Chassis inline rear shock. The service is similar to other deluxe shocks, Nude, RT3, RL, RT, R, Select, etc. But there are some differences in tools needed between the models and the years of the models to perform the service. Make sure to verify your model of shock. I plan to make videos for each model in the future
This service isn't difficult. I'm positive most people can perform it. Rockshox engineered their inline shocks to be easily serviceable, way more so than FOX DPS inline shocks. EX: The damper body has a Schrader valve, which makes it easy for anyone to fill the IFP chamber with a shock pump.
Nothing beats freshly serviced shocks and forks, Rockshox thought about its customers when designing these shocks, making it as easy as possible to service them with the least number of tools and effort.
As always, if you have any questions, leave them in the comment section

I HIGHLY recommend buying an extra set of orings for the IFP air fill adapters. They can be found online at shop like the oring store. The size is:

thank you making all these helpful videos!
Thank you for taking the time to watch them and for leaving a comment. Hopefully one of them will come in handy for you in the future 👍
@@zoubtube I repair multiple bikes. And my friends bikes. Your videos are always useful. Thanks again.
Haha, good timing. Just got my axs seatpost apart, and this happens to be the shock I run on my bike, so what a convenient coincidence. Going to throw the linear xl air can on mine soon and see how that rides
Hopefully the video helps out. If you find any issues with in it while serving your shock can you let me know so I can adjust in future videos. thanks 👍
Legendary videos 😊
Much appreciated Myman. I ended up re-tuning this shock, which should be the next video scheduled to release. It had a digressive Tune, which didn't work out for the frame I put it on, so I changed it to a linear tune. I planned on making one video out of the whole job but figured it would be too long, so I made two videos, one to service the shock, which should be helpful for more people, and the other to tune it, which I have to assume will help a very small group of people. More videos to come 👍
@zoubtube any clue about how to tell if a frame geometry is progressive or linear? I found some info about it online but not sure I can decipher it haha. I have a 2022 mondraker raze r and no clue if it'd be better suited to a progressive vs linear rear shock setup.
Will you do one on the sid LUXE in the future? cheers!
YUP! The plan is to make videos on as many model and years fork, shock etc as I can over time. The sid luxe is relatively popular around here, but chances are I won't be working on one until seasons end, unless someone has an issue with there's before that
@@zoubtube Great to hear thanks!
This came at the perfect time! I just did a service on the deluxe select+ RT c1 and it was working for about a week and then today I noticed that there was oil coming out of the top of the shock out of the screw holes. It now also makes a horrible noise when it compresses. Any idea on what could be the issue?
It sounds like your damper shaft seal has leaked and oil is making its way into the eyelet. I originally planned on adding this service to this video but decided not to as I thought it would make the video too long, and to make a separate video on servicing the eyelet, which includes the shaft. Below is a link to the Eyelet service. I basically ended this video at the point of starting the Eyelet service. You will see the shaft im talking about on page 11. Not a hard job but does involve a few extra steps. Hopefully this helps for now
