Getting my Reba forks serviced this week and just wondering if its possible tune them more to my liking. I guess I am trying to get back Fox Float performance for Reba price.
Had a quick read online and it seems adding tokens stiffens them up to stop bottoming out whereas what I want is to make them more plush so I apparently need to remove the token or tokens already there.
Is this a turd polishing exercise best left alone or is it possible to make discernible changes to them?
In my experience it is turd polishing, however there was meant to be a way of fitting Sid dampers to Reba forks.
I got mine working well for an hour or so after servicing, but then they were back to crap. New air seals is meant to help, I am sure the issue with Reba damping relates to air getting past the lower air seal in the damper and pressurising the low pressure part of the damper.
I have a set to sell if you want to buy a spare set.....
From what I can see online they have two tokens fitted as standard.
Think I will try removing these one at a time and see what happens.
Thanks for the offers.
Just collected my newly serviced forks.
When they opened them up they found that the oil was over filled by 20ml and dry on the other side.
They have given them a full (first) service replaced all seals o rings etc and new oil.
Also removed one token.
They are recommending trying 25% sag and slower rebound and think they feel much better than before.
Just got a service kit from afore mentioned TF tuned and plan to service my Reba rlt's tonight, well wife's out and hopefully the two year old will go to bed easily. My reba's are 100mm and I have read that you can remove the internal spacers to make them 120mm travel. Will hopefully find out if this true later. TF tuned have a interesting page regarding setting up the forks and improving some of the faults reba's have, might be worth a look http://www.tftuned.com/tech-help/22-rockshox
