Rockshox SID Ultimate 32 B4 200 hour Full Service guide for Beginners. Don't let a fork get this bad

- This Video is a full 50-hour and 200-hour service guide for the Rockshox SID Ultimate B4 Chassis. This fork is a very easy to service, and I highly recommend you keep on top of the recommended service intervals
There are multiple versions of the SID fork, and though the service is very similar between them, there will be some differences, so make sure you verify the version of the SID fork you have
XC forks typically have smaller parts, such as foam rings and wipers. They are also filled with less oil in the lowers. In a nutshell, they don't take as much abuse as larger forks, so they really should be serviced regularly in order to avoid issues, as seen in this video
As always, if there are any questions, feel free to comment, and I'll try to respond as soon as I can.

Brother, your channel is so underrated. Very high quality tech show!
Thanks myman. repetition is definitely helping with remembering to mention details. Peoples comments are a huge help as well. So Anytime you see something off or a better way to do things let me know and I'll try to apply it to a future video. As always thanks for the support! 👍
Glad someone stepped up to a service video on the SID Thanks!
Holy crap, not sure how long you've had this channel but I have loved your park tool videos for a long time and just stumbled onto your videos on YT. Thank you Hoss. You are amazing and your videos are invaluable.
Thank you for such a gracious comment, myman. It makes me really glad to hear the video was helpful for you. If you have any questions, just let me know. More videos to come.
Another quality video. They were well overdue. Dry as a bone. Great detailed walk through.
Thank you very much sir. Overdue indeed. I was just happy that the bushings weren't trashed. More videos to come 👍
Another excellent video!
Glad to hear you found it informative.
I got this really long silicon bottle scrubber that works really good for cleaning the lowers. I think it's Betty crocker brand
That is SO funny that you mention this. My GF has been on this anti plastic kick every since her major health scare last fall, so she now only drinks out of stainless steel bottles. she bought this nice bottle scrubber about a month ago, and I was SOOOOO close to using it, and taking the beating after. I was too lazy to drive to the dollar store to get one because the weather was super crappy when I recorded it. I should've gone with the beating 😁
Excelente video aprendo mucho con usted
Me alegra mucho saber que el vídeo te resultó útil. Gracias por el comentario. Vendrán más vídeos. 👍
Subscribed. Thanks for laying the tools out for each part. A ton of effort appreciated.
6:20 use SRAM butter over dynamic seal grease or not? Confused by what you said there.
Thanks for the support. In the rockshox service guide, they state dynamic grease. Yet on the seal package, they state SRAM butter. Personally, The only time I'll use dynamic grease is when the grease needs to mix with oil, such as in the IFP chamber of a dropper post. For air springs, just use butter. 👍
Great video, really appreciate the complete walk through. I have a '14 SID A3 model with Specialized Brain damper. Is it possible to still use this video as a guide for the 200 hour service or is it going to get too complicated with the different internals. Thanks and I look forward to some of your other videos I just found!
Glad to hear you found the video informative. As to your question: the lowers yes, the job is basically the same, the air spring as well, though the air spring will look a bit different. As for the damper, no. I believe yours is a motion control, which is a completely different damper. I'll be posting a video on a fork with motion control. its just a question of time. I'll try an get to one soon. thanks for your comment
Thanks for this video, and could you make a new movie with latest SID Ultimate 35mm with Race Day 2 damper ?
The plan is to make videos for as many different brands and models of forks, shocks, droppers, etc, as I could. time is the limiting factor though. I'm sure I'll be working on one of these sooner than later 👍
@@zoubtube Great, you make very good videos that are really useful. Thanks for your work, and I wish you a lot of free time for recording.
PS I'm waiting for movie bout Sid, because I want to buy it soon and get it serviced ;)
What tool is your blunt pick and what adapter did you use to connect the syringe to the damper bleed setscrew when bleeding the air out the damper.
The pick I bought from ifixit a long time ago. turns out they still sell it below is the link.
www.ifixit.com/products/metal-spudger
The adapter on the syringe is the same adapter that is used to bleed SRAM brakes. Just make sure it's completely free of dot fluid if you're going to use the same syringe to bleed your fork. Or even better, just buy a dedicated syringe for your fork. They can be found online for good prices
Hi there.
Love your channel 🙂
I have serviced a Sid RL3 with remote. The compression knob has lost the "spring" and doesn't turn back to open on its own. Any way to open the damper unit completely and fix it? The bladder and all of the top has to be taken off...
Thanks for the kind words. Technically, yes. The upper part of the damper can be opened. But it can be quite a PITA. Worse yet, Rockshox doesn't offer parts to the public (that I know of) for the upper stack, so if anything goes wrong, it could prove to be a problem. I need to know the exact fork you have. Any chance you can send me the serial number?
@zoubtube Strange thing is that the fork didn't show when I typed in the serial number in the service hub at Sram website...
34T83589300
Not my bike, so I don't know the year.
Scott Spark. 100mm travel. RL3 damper
@@MrDarni78 Based on the serial number, it's a FS-SID-RL3-B1 fork. It comes with a charger 2.0 damper and a debonair air spring. IMO, this is a good overall damper. Charger 2.0 is comfy on XC trails when setup right. I could be wrong, but I don't think there is anything you can upgrade it to in order to make it better for that generation. What exactly were your thoughts as far as "upgrading" the actual damper?
@@zoubtube No plan on upgrading. Just changing the oil when I realized that the compression knob was "loose"
Does the 2023 Reba 110mm travel require oil on the air side? (Positive chamber)
What sucks is I was supposed to work on one of these in january, but we were dealing with so many crazy things that I just couldn't make a video in a reasonable amount of time. I'll get one in my hands again soon i'm sure.
As for the air spring, Technically no, but I would add in 2ml of 0w30 or maxima heavy.
@@zoubtube ok, I’ll give it a shot. I did the 50 hour service on min and had almost no oil in it. I did the 7mils too just in case. I will say the air spring seal head looks different for sure
Is the charger 2 damper fits on a sid ultimate that has charger raceday damper? Thank you
I'm not sure I fully understand your question. are you asking if you can replace a raceday damper with a charger 2 damper in a sid ultimate? if not can you please reword the question as well as let me know which version SID (chassis model) you have, or give me the serial number
Yes, can i replace a raceday damper to charger damper in sid ultimate?
@@francisalbina5278 before I can say an official yet can you let me know what year or chassis number sid for you have
Its FS SID SL ULTIMATE 2020 32mm 100
@@francisalbina5278 Good thing I didn't speak too soon, as that changes things. For some reason, I assumed you were talking about the newer sid which offers both dampers. I need the chassis model of your fork to be sure. Can you get me the serial number so I can look up the chassis version. Below is a link that will bring you to a page that shows the damper upgrade options for the different chassis. I'm still assuming the answer is yes, but without the chassis number, I can't say a definitive yes. Let me know if you need help with the page.

what is the stanchion diameter of this fork?
This one was a 32 stanchion.
@@zoubtube does any rockshox fork has 34mm stanchions?
@@rIP2693. At the moment none come to mind. 34mm has been a fox trail standard for a while now, rockshox went with 35mm. from there it's been a bigger penis competition. 😁
Hey, can you tell me does Fox 34 airshaft can be usable for XFusion slide 34 fork?
😂😂😂❤
Thanks for taking the time to look at the video
