I have a few comments to make. 1. It is better to protect chrome with a plastic brush and not with a metal brush. 2. Stickers are well removed if they are heated with a hair dryer. I do not know how Google will transfer the translation correctly)))
Me referng to a Fox 40, where is the damper? And where the Air/Spring chamber? All i saw was a piece of Rubber to protect the Stanchions and the Rods that kept the Lower legs on the Stanchions... additionaly why Yellow? this looks like a building equipment, i personaly dont like this colour on a fork at all...
does this fork have springs?..when you disassembled the fork i did not see any springs?...i have an old mtb that also says zoom on the sticker..before i clean the fork out i need if there are springs on this zoom fork?...thanks.
Yes this does have springs. They are in the lower stanchion and we're not removed in this video. I did manage to remove mine, one had some grease on it the other was moist with water ingress and muck.
My compliments for NOT having music in the background, and the real sounds were like sound effects in themselves, and SO satisfying to hear along the way. Nice overhaul job, wow. You are inspiring me to do mine.
Not everyone would care to do a video and restoration on this fork, so thanks. There’s many of us out there that still use these because we can’t afford those air forks. Great job!
Thank you for your video. This must be the only one with this type of front suspension using a spring in the lower part. All the others i have looked at are oil, oil or air and oil. I have a 20" wheel with a threaded headstem. Trying to find a replacement is not easy, so this has helped to at least do a partial restore. No spares available anywhere unless someone out there can point me in the right direction.
Great job! but... what happened with the springs? Were they so damaged that you had to replace them completely? Did you restore them? That is something I would like to see. Thanks!
I wonder if there even were springs because they could never be secured by the plastic thing he puts in the upper leg. But thats where they should have went. I'm also sure he would have showed us the springs to make the video more interesting..
@@parrr3068 Yes there are springs. They are inside the lowers, not inside the stanchions. They are secured by the long bolts. Also, there is one seal that is missing on his long bolt. It looks like that he didn't removed the springs, i don't know why. I can say that most of the rust and mud are in the lowers, on the springs... I have the same fork but mine was waaaaaaay more rusted 😅
meu amigo estou comprando 1 biciicleta aro 29 ela tem opção de escolher suspensão VORTEX ou ELEVEM ...... qual das 2 vc me indicaria ??????? me ajuda ai irmão
If the springs are too weak are there standard sizes you can find somewhere to replace? Even on older bikes? Or are they all custom sizes and you will never be able to switch them out to new springs? Thanks! Great video!
hay lugares que dicen eres un crack, yo digo que eres apasionado en lo que haces y te felicito, me gustaría ver un video de como sacar la espiga que se queda pegada al tenedor y luego tenemos que cortar y poner un nuevo tenedor y nueva espiga, saludos desde RD
I hope you can find the time to help me ... I have not been able to get the forks to drop apart I have been turning the bolt on both sides for days... Can you give me some info on what I can do to get them apart ...
I have a suspension very similar to that, but it goes with oil to maintain it, is it the same? Did you carry hydraulic oil or someone else in particular?
Quedo muy bien..🙂👍 . He visto tus vídeos y me fascina como las restauras.. Es bueno saber que no todo son canales de bicicletas de "alta gama " qué en TH-cam abundan.
Hay de todo, solo hay que buscar. Lo que me llama la atención es que en este video no se ve el tipo de elemento que usa la suspensión, es decir si es de resortes, elastomeros o algo mas. Sin embargo está muy bien realizado el trabajo de pintura.
A common star bit head, you can use a regular socket ratchet, extension & star bit head that fits...It doesn't have to be a T-handle wrench like the one he's using. One problem I see right away is, if those bolts are that rusty, then everything (springs) inside the fork will also be rusty. I thought he was going to remove the springs & other parts inside. Remove the rust, clean the inside of the fork and put it all back together.
Thank you for watching.
Subscriptions and likes are a big boost to the next video.😀

I have a question. Have you applied the varnish 2 times? Before the ZOOM label and then over the label?
@@Kobenchack Thank you! The logo was painted and then varnished.

Hello
It's really cool how simple old bike parts are. I love restorations on stuff like this and the paint job is insane!
does this fork have springs?..when you disassembled the fork i did not see any springs?...i have an old mtb that also says zoom on the sticker..before i clean the fork out i need if there are springs on this zoom fork?...thanks.
Das gleiche habe ich mich auch die ganze Zeit gefragt
Mine also didn't hv spring😁

it's okay to use non air forks but this one it's crap, just gen an Suntour simple fork and it would be 100 better than this on the video
@@leart78One man's trash is another man's treasure? 🤷
That's a lot of work for a Zoom fork!
Yup
we all know because it says zoom you go instantly 40 mph when you want
@@Zandercd yessss
you ruin the cool
y el elemento amortiguador ? esa horquilla lleva resortes o elastómeros ? me hubiese gustado ver que la desarmaras completa....
Por el ruido lleva resortes
Es de resorte colega, no se por que no los incluyo en el video son lo más importante de la suspencion
@@salvadorramirez93 hola sabes que medida usa para desarmar la suspención ?

Oh Lord, restoring a $7 fork. Gotta take my hat off for working so hard in this. Either he has time on his hand or is passionate. Good job BTW!
for the views
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing this video, now I can fix my kid's bike front fork which has been in the garage for years.
i didn't see spring removal or replacement , surely the dirty springs weren't left in without attention
I cant figure out the mechanics of this fork...the bolt and litle rubber stopper is all there is?! Nice video
Que aceite se uso para lubricar los postes de la suspencio 😚

Back in a days when suspension had a rubber dust protector
It worked really well

Nice, but where did you find new springs? I have a fork like that, it needs new rubber boots. Where would you fine some?
Y esa orquilla no tiene resorte?
Наглядно и познавательно👌. Спасибо за видео 👍. Успехов Вам.
I found this video very satisfying and therapeutic 😊
Nice man. What kind of liquid do you use to clean in 2:45? its pure water ?
Whats the surface rust treatment you used?
Son nuevo saludos ermano hoye como se llama la erramienta para afjojar el tornillo que lleva la suspension

Hi, great video. can you say what type of grease you used on the fork stems?

además no todo cliente esta dispuesto a pagar por todo ese trabajo tan excelente
hey comet, what tape would you recommend that won't remove any paint?
What is this style of fork actually CALLED? This is one rare style to find any video for.
