*Was a perfect mix of value **Latest.Bike** and functionality for my 17 year old. Priced better than Mongoose with same build quality of better.*
Excellent. I took my old zooms apart watching your video, and I think the manufacturer forgot the coils. Haha.
Hello thank you for showing me that masterpiece of Restauration. ❤
Brilliant! Very well filmed and edited. Great to see someone is encouraging restoration rather than throw away. Keep up the good work Polska.
Is glad to hear it , thx bro
I try to improve my movies and skills all the time 😉
Thank you for this video, my friend's MTB needed to be restored, and you taught me how. Your channel is underrated man keep it up. 👍
This is great, it's exactly what I needed to get the idea of how to actually do it. The one thing is that I don't know where to get the tools or grease
Gostei, vou fazer o mesmo na minha bike (São Paulo-Brasil).
Great video. I am going to try this on my zoom forks as I have most of the tools apart from the long screw driver bit
Amazing, you have encouraged me to restore a few shocks that are from 2001 ha. Thanks! Great video!
Thanks bro, its very nice to help you 🙂

Should always turn a crescent wrench with the moving jaw on the inside of the turn. Why not use naval jelly to remove the rust, rather than an abrasive? With all of the shxt in the forks, maybe the fork seals were bad? Forks should be rebuildable. What a waste to throw it away a whole fork because you can't buy new fork seals. I'd rather rebuild a fork than buy a new one for $200. It is incredibly stupid if a fork cannot be left in the rain. Bikes are not for sunny days only.
So satisfying
Will the stanchions safe for seals? Will it actually need replacement eventually?
I have similar zoom fork (even older and more primitive) whenever I make a turn my wheel makes contact with v-brakes for some reason! It's really wobbly too... dunno if there is a sense to do something with that
My zoom masera has preload adjuster and that preload has stopped working when my bro fully turned it and broke it and now my suspension is kinda tight so how do i loose that spring without buying a new preload cap any idea?
Es pasta de pulir la que usaste en las barras ???.
Thank you for the tutorial, i will do it with my fork
This helped a lot thanks!
Great! 😎
Thank you very much, man.
Amazing job. Those are probably feeling like new 👍😃🙂
8:55 what are the threaded rods for that are hanging out of the suspension inner stantions / pipes, and that bit that you slide up under the one?
usually compression and rebound dampeners but in this case, they just look like long bolts to thread the lowers onto
I have zoom 525 ams it’s too stiff and why only one spring?
Thanks you for tutorial of the best for me. Do all zomm forks open the bolts using a 5 mm L key?

Looking for a place that sells parts for the genesis v2900 factory ground force fork. Needing the rubber outer wipers.
How to remove white colour plastic part of the shock absorber ?
good work 🛠
Thx bro ☺️
Hi! how to find old dust gasket?
I purchased a new Aventon Level E Bike in Mar 2022, after about 2 weeks the front fork makes a clunk sound when going over some bumps and it's pissing me off, it does not do this when it's locked out though, does anyone know what the issue is? Or even an upgrade fork the would fit this bike? Thanks John
Brother the issues is in your front shock absorber you should give it to restore oor should buy new ones
Спасибо добрый человек. Разобрал и никак не мог собрать.
great job man
Thx bro 🙂
will trying...
👍
How did you do the Allen wrench long?
I used the extension from the kit
Could you do one for either hydraulic brakes or maybe gears please
Great vids thanks
Thx 🙂
I already opened it from behind will i be able to fix it again?
Yes you are able
What if inside volt is crushed?
Nice video, man. What kind of grease did you use?
Light slippery grease
przydatne , dzięki
😎😉
I am surprised you have so few views... Very nice video!
Thx bro, this is how the youtube algorithm works 🥲
Just bought a bike with a seized zoom front fork. I might just try this.
Yep, probably need cleaning, derusting and lubricate 😎 enjoy bro
@@lonerbikes booom! Got it working first try! Thanks a lot bro, i owe you a beer if you ever come to portugal.
Bro can you pls provide the link of the 5mm Allen bolt ipeaner for suspension
You need to search just long allen 5mm key for cars or exactly bike suspension, but i use standard allen key with extensions from HONITON Set
can polishing paste prevent rusting in the rain?
If you use paste for aluminium, they prevent metal by thin coat, or you can use some wax after polishing
Thanks
😊
what tools did u use at 3:00 to open the screw inside?
5mm allen key with extensions from kit
@@lonerbikes which kit do u use?

what is extract gasoline or under what name can I find it?
This is degreaser, try to find as petroleum ether
Great work!
Nice
🙂thx
I would have strapped vinegar to the legs with tape or plastic wrap and then used very fine sandpaper after...
Good idea, but i think that sandpaper can make some scratches, o prefer steel wool
Бессмысленное и беспощадное восстановление вилки zoom, она мертва с завода 😁
нет сначала,пока не ржавая,она работает,а вот после такого ржавления,да уже особо и восстанавливать смысле нет,если только на продажу .

Which is country??
Im from Poland 🇵🇱
Porfa por favor si puede traducir en español también porque necesitamos entender en español
Can you repair mine to?
How much?
For free 🤪
ok
Great video but hearing u say fork sliders was painful there called stanctions my friend
Should've removed the rust by electrolysis, it's fast and non abrasive.
o kurde ty z Polski
Ta 🫡😆
😂nadie te cree , que estaba abandonada y afuera 😂😂😂😂
Water will pass through worn seals and start to rust again.water and grease=mud.
Zoom produces cheap steel garbage. There should be at least rubber covers on fork. I had to use so much force that fork bent, after a lot of beating and it freed up. Can I still bend back fork legs?
To improve the performance of the zoom fork, you need to throw it in the trash and install a rigid fork. The zoom fork does not provide shock absorption, it only enhances all the road irregularities due to the lack of damping.
Хорошее видее несмотря на то что у менявилка марзочи 666
Ich würde die wegschmeissen, viel zu verrostet...eine neue kostet kein 100,-
It is just not worth efforts. It would be easier to find a scarp bike in better condition and transfer its fork.
restoration of shitty fork worth 7$. Total time spent 3 hours. COngratulation. The fork is as shitty as it was
Dont be angry bro 😎, look how was this fork before - agony , and after remove lots of mud, cleaning and lubrication, is working good , of course thia is totally budget fork but maybe this video can be helpful for someone 🙂
@@lonerbikes helped me! thanks!
@@lonerbikes brother if you remove more dust from where you use abrasive sponge if you more scratch the suspension rood the remaining rust will left from fork and your suspension will work like brand new and works smoothly
Снимать топ кеп разводным ключом 😂😂 хахахахахаха

Dont anderstand
English please
@@lonerbikes dismantling the topcap from the fork with an adjustable wrench is laugh😁😁
Don't leave your bike outside - and clean it. Then you'll not end up with a fork like this.
True
Myslím že to bola zbytočná robota lebo v tých miestach kde si to obrusoval sa stenší vrstva kovu a tým pádom bude mať vidlica v tých miestach vôlu.
ZOOM? RESTORATION? is it possible to recover garbage?
Yep 😂
Зачем реанимировать этот хлам? На помойку и делов...
A new fork like this costs ~
Who shit in your cereal?
Not everything is about money, my dude.
@@acastroheimpell agree...but it can be about time...and than that translates to money again
50 euro can be for some suntour fork. this can cost up to 30euro. The 2 or 3h spend in refreshing this fork can cost a service shop at least 30 euro. But with doing the service yourself it is worth the experience one can get while doing this.
Stupid restoration of not working suspension at all... Better throw it as a rubbish... Such suspension no needs to restoration it is single use and throw out far away and forget you used it ever.
Are you sure? Video might be just helpful for someone. It is dramatic condition fork but as you can see, its is still rapairable, this is only example for beginners. How to unassembly and restore this single use suspension 👌😁
Very helpful video thanks
Good attempt at speaking English. You'll be a natural before you know it!
Nice
