    Fox 38

    Good observation! They can tint differently but they are the same exact oil, and slightly cheaper here in the USA. To the other commenters and the OP- I didn't notice he across the pond so Blud could be hard to get. I do agree with the Supergliss suggestion from Mcharza.

    Fox 38

    We use a light version of the Fox Gold oil and we get it from Blud Lubricants. For the damper- you need to use the same oil as you use for the damper Fox/Motorex 4 wt fork oil in that case.

    Levo Gen 2 x-Fusion Manic dropper seatpost Wintek Cartridge

    We avoid those posts. PNW posts are reliable, easily serviced, the customer service is only second to mine (LOL)and they are affordable. Most posts (read all) cost too much to return to factory quality with parts and that. I would rather sell a post for a lot less than a $300 repair bill.

    Bushing to bearing mount shock?

    Hit up Slikgrpahics- you can find new decals and even customize the colors!

    Damnit! New Fox Transfer '25 sticking

    Ensure that the cable adjustment is correct and the routing of the housing is proper. Ebikes have the motor down there and some companies get creative with routing - or they just give up and use crappy routing (looking at you Giant). Either way- if its new look for warranty support from Fox or...

    Downisizng stroke from 55 to 52.5

    Since you are staying in the 'root size range' you can purchase this kit 11.4118.113.017 and it will require full teardown to install. RS used to put some travel and volume spacers with new shock in the box purchases. The service manual has a little info about it as well.

    Cube Reaction Pro 500 Fork upgrade

    A bomber would be a decent choice, as well as a Lyrik or Pike. Lots of used options out there and we may even have something here that would work. What you are experiencing is poor/lack of damping control from the current fork and are just bouncing off the air spring. A better fork will give...

    Have Avinox given us a good thing (or not)?

    Fangs2K - you are right, but I live in America where and little screw ball can sue and WIN for their own negligence.

    Have Avinox given us a good thing (or not)?

    It is also kind of funny how things always come back. Who can remember when suspension started coming out? As a suspension guy I do vividly. Many complaints of how riders could go so fast and get our sport shut down from injuries or hiker complaints. Then disc brakes! Holy freaking Moly-...

    Have Avinox given us a good thing (or not)?

    It is an evolution. In 1965 we did not have motocross motorcycles, they were converted street bikes and the howl from the motorcycle purists was loud. In 1985 we started seeing real MTB's on the trails- hikers were pissed and voiced it. Not loud enough to stop people from riding toys and...

    Fox Float X performance LSC upgrade

    A very easy add-on here at the shop. $35 when already doing a service.

    Bushing to bearing mount shock?

    As long as the width between the two mounts and bolt hole size are the same- it should work pretty well. The comments about squeaking are not all wrong. I found when installing these type for my customers I use a film of heavy wheel bearing grease or like betwen the bearing and the little...

    Fork upgrade

    You only need to swap the crown race from the 35 to the Fox. IF the 35 has the big spacers, the wheel may not fit without new ones. That is pretty rare these days, but it freaks people out.

    Fox 36 Rattle Noise

    Nice find- I was going to suggest the rebound knobs. You should not have that issue on a new fork but crap happens in Taiwan. We get many folks calling after doing their own lowers on Grip2 series dampers. When installing the rebound knobs they need to be set open (full anti clockwise)...
