Hi guys, Just a quick one. I bought these Rockshox from ebay as a part of my recent bike build. Now I'm looking to give them a service with new seals etc.

From looking on the internet I found that their Psylo XC 2002 model. Has anyone had any experience with these forks? Where do I start? Looking at the top of the crown, on one side I have the U-Turn adjuster and on the other just a plain black nut. Am I right in assuming, to change the oil its the leg with the flat black nut on top? Another thing that worries me is, on the manual that I found online.

It says that the adjust on the bottom of the fork leg is supposed to have a 90 degree turn from firm and soft. However mine freely turns. I can only assume that something has come apart inside the fork leg. Any thoughts? The rebound - 90deg turn.

There is a tube with a slit in at the top inside the shocks. The 90deg turn open and shuts that slit which in turn allows more or less oil through the void. This inturn effects the rebound - rate of return. Yours is broken - not fixable im afraid - I believe that you can purchase a new one I just dont know where? I am interested however as my rock shox psylos are in the same state. If you find some where to purchase this item (im guessing cost cannot be more than a tenner) let me know.

Is there a proper service guide for these forks? I want knew fox jobbies but due to house refurb they are on hold ofr the mo. I looked on the proper sram fox links but ones a how to use guide and others just for lower bushes i thiiink. Be good to service these and use em for a bit then when i get new i will have a general heads up on fork servicing. Stanchions fine on mine, rebound will work but has gone tight with crap ingress.happened prior.but theyre starting to be not so plush or free as prior.the sag doesnt release so well when ya release your weight.they need some love.

This shock is great for the freeride as well as those cross country riders who like some more travel on the way down the hill. I love cranking it down to 80mm and locking it out on the way up the hill keeping me forward, and then raising it to 125mm on the way down the hill to increase the speed and take a few drops here and there. The travel adjustment takes just a few seconds to go from 80-125 and the lockout is easily accessed at the push of a button on your bars while riding. Great performance & functionality.just what I was looking for.zero complaints thus far. Kanjani8 Er Single.

Last year's reviews on this shock don't look so good.looks like RockShox stepped it up this year.

This fork is awesome, but there is a flaw in the design by putting a piece of plastic in a high stress area. If this fork is made for Free ride, they need to put a little more oomph in that piece, metal would be awesome. I'm very hard on my ride. Everyday I ride to work, every day I jump everything I can *Urban Assault Style* The fork was awesome till the piece broke from an 8 ft. Jump over some cement bleachers. When this is fixed it's going on my Fisher Sugar for my friends to puts around on and get into the sport, meanwhile I'm going all out from now on.
