I remember fork travel being easy to adjust. It was a common feature. Pike forks had a way to just dial fork travel. Now it seems like forks have gotten harder to adjust. Fox and Rockshox have moved towards shaft replacement to change travel. Glad to see SR has kept a simpler design.
I thought about it more, and I must be partly due to a move towards air springs. The old dial adjust on Rockshox Pikes was only on coil sprung forks. Anyway, hats off to SR for not requiring a shaft replacement a la RS Fox and others.
Great Video for those who use SR suntour forks . Love how easy they are to work on next see if suntour will give you the RC2 PCS CARTRIDGE and if you can the difference
Thanks great video. Just inherited my grandsons MTB here in the UK, just passed his auto test, and need to service the bike so this will be useful. You now have a new Sub.
very helpful brought one 2nd hand at 150mm to replace my son's 120mm coil which he can't compress as his to light. so now I need to find some spacers to drop to 120mm cheers
Thanks for sharing this. Planning to get this fork model. Currently have epicon on 140mm for 27.5. Did the adjustments myself from youtube videos. And i learned another one today.
I was surprised when I heard you say milimetre. I was like I didn't know USA liked to use metric in their videos. Then I heard the "out" 😅 Anyway thanks for sharing. Saving this since I'm planning to get a 27.5 Auron for my San Quentin
Wow, nice fork. Suntour's high end line looks well engineered and constructed. Did Suntour recommend the synthetic gear lube for their air piston seals? Seems like a cost effective solution. I remember Rockshox Redrum of the past. I still have a little. It was probably similar to that gear lube, but red, and expensive, if you could find it.
@@ToogyHowser I think the synthetic gear oil will be on my list in the future. I probably only have 20cc of red rum left. I bought that from a shop about 17 years ago, they just poured it from their bottle into a small bottle I had. LOL.
Toggy I hope you can do a full break and build up of durolux r2c2 .. it can really help us durolux user ... Including the air chamber what tools and oil needed... Tnx..
Nice video! I didn't know that santour doesn't have oil at the lowers like the other brands. I have a question. Since the lowers are using grease, then the two bolts on each lowers near the mounting of the brake piston is use to insert grease inside the lowers. Is that true? Also, since you put a fork oil on the rubber seal of the stantion and press, then the water also can enter?
A bit late but the two bolts you're talking about is just easy access ports to put gear oil on the foam rings. Two drops max on each side from personal experience. As for the case of water getting in the fork, I've been riding my Auron most of the winter season and even dropped my bike into a stream but I didn't see any signs of water getting in. Hope this helps.
About the air chamber: ¿Wich oil should we use ? i have the WPL forkboost oil and i´m wondering if it will be ok to add a little bit on the air chamber, i think it´s a bit heavy/thik oil and i don´t wanna make it worst.
Checkout the Suntour Manual on their website for your specific fork. It'll say exactly what your travel range of the fork is! (For this fork, the Auron, it's minimum is 130 afaik)
so you added a spacer because you wanted 10mm less of travel? does that do anything to the volume of the fork, as in making it stiffer or less chance of bottoming out?
sorry I commented before the video was over. The spacer you added to the air shaft side, on the coil, what does that do? And adding the gear oil and spacers on the other fork takes volume away, why do you need both? Would the spacers alone do it, without adding gear oil?
My lockout has stopped working on my Suntour Aion LO-R 35 150mm. I have looked but not found any information on how to adjust or why this has happened.. any help would be appreciated...
There are some mystic things about sr dampers. As i serviced my raidon fork, i compressed it without air up side down, this resulted in lockout stop working. There are different size hexes like 2 and 5 under the lockout cap and i managed it somehow to make it work again with turning them. There was a video somewhere on youtube, how to fix this problem. This 2 hex screws allow as well to adjust how much travel remains after locking the fork, from solid hard to 5-6 mm of travel, or even loose, so the lockout dont work any more.
Hey toogy I have a lower end SR Suntour XCR Air fork with a remote lockout. I'm doing some more aggressive riding and I'm wondering if I will be able to adjust the travel on this fork since it isn't as high end. Do you know if I can do this and if so would you recommend it?
Raidon forks are also made to be adjustable from 80 to 140. But my one which came with the 2019 giant fathom 2 was not like this. Only 120mm travel availibale. But i did put some 15wt oil in the lowers just like the rockshox and it works very smooth. You can also change the progressivity of the air spring even if its not made to take volume spacers. Just add bit more Gear oil into the airchamber.
Great video. I have a Suntour Raidon XC and I want to set 120mm travel with the same air volume spacers in upper part (It has actually 100mm). I want to keep the same progressivity with bigger travel. Is it possible? Can I keep the air volume spacers in the positive air spring there or I need to remove them when I increase the travel of the fork? Does the progressivity change if the travel is bigger and the upper spacers will stay there? Thank you.
You dont have to hit both bottom bolts with a mallet? The lowers come right off simply by removing the bottom bolts? My axon's lowers can't come off, I supposedly didn't hit the bolts hard enough.
I followed the same steps but I couldn't get the lower legs removed, feels like negative pressure pulling the legs upwards whenever I try to pull them down. I tried to tap on the lower legbto release the trapped air same like what I used to do on the pike but now joy. The tapping has now made some dents as well to the nut and o probably need to buy a new one as its not tight ingredients Any idea how to remove the lower leg and where to buys spares from
yes, well the volume spacers don't necessarily make the fork stiffer, I think it just adds mid stroke support, I think? I'm certainly not an expert on this! lol
What is the max number of volume spacers that fit? I just keep bottoming out with the stock setup and want it a little stiffer on the 2nd half of the stroke without loosing the plushness.
Hi! I have an XCR34 Air suspension fork on my Canyon with 100mm travel. Do I have to remove or install spacers to increase the travel to 130mm? The spring fork goes from 100mm to 130mm.
Great Video. Thx a lot! I have the SR Suntour Auron too. I bought it used and it must be from 2016 or 2017. Unfortunately there was some oil in the system when I opened it up. 🙈 Do you know if there was oil used in a older series of the Auron? Or was this just a "mistake" from the former owner.
This is actually a famous mod made by some suntour owners, myself included, to help the fork feel smoother. Much like spraying silicone to your dropper/forks stanchions...
Hola eh querido ajustar el recorrido de mi sr suntour durolux 36 r29 solo que eh muchos videos eh visto que tiene un resorte adentro del piston de aire y la mia no tiene nada eh notado que no baja completamente y le quite el cartucho del aire y parece que no baja por que pega en el otro cartucho donde estan los ajustes
Great video, I have a lower end xcr32 air, not sure if i could increase the travel, but 100mm is enough for my style of riding, but was wondering if this would be similar to servicing my fork, and how much maximum psi i can run these at, at the moment i run them at 130psi and I'm 90kg, your advice would be much appreciated?🤔
I have an SR Epixon. Does changing the travel on these forks also change the total fork length? I'm asking for the sake of how it would change the stack. I noticed that my Epixon is set at 100mm but the stanchion that is exposed at rest is at 120mm. I'm wondering if changing it from 100 to 120 would or wouldn't change the fork length.
This is great! I'm about to purchase a Suntour Auron 35 Boost 29ner with 160mm travel, but the frame that I have can only accomodate up to 150mm travel, Is it possible to lower it. Thank you
The suntour website lists the range as 130-160mm for a boost Auron 35 29er. It should be easy to get it to 150mm or below for your frame. You'll need to have extra spacers, though.
Hi there! I really like lock out mode. But as i understand this RC2 damper don't have it. How does it behave when u put compression damping on maximum? Does it still dive when pedal hard standing up?
Hello i bought the same auron 35 rc2 pcs... Its ok to add Fox gold 20 wt to lower legs instead of stock greese???? If is there some knocking noise from air chamber then how to fix it?? How much psi for 85 kg?? How much sag for dirt road riding , woods fields, etc.. i want to get my fork as soft as posible, riding on grasss alwayz kick the sht outta me. Thanks nice. Vid !
Does this apply to all suntour? I have a xcr lo air set at 100mm but max is 120mm...so if u want more travel u take out those spacers right? Just trying to learn coz bike shop charges around 1hr job smh
Rather than buying a bottle of synthetic gear oil, is there an equivalent suspension oil that I could use instead? I heave pretty much every weight of that stuff. Also - I'd like to do this on the Durolux RC fork which has a compression speed adjuster. Should it be fully open or fully closed when servicing, or does it matter? Thanks! Great video.
Pretty much anything raidon up are solid value forks. People such fan boys of fox and rockshox. Those lower end rockshox sub 350 price are somewhat junk or overpriced for its class, paying alot for name at that point
@@ToogyHowser thanks for the response. They told me 120 when I called them yesterday but I will see you when I get the fork. Either should work I suppose.
I have Suntour xcm 30 on Atroz 2 I travel road to get to dirt trails from gravel to single track. As a 62 gym rat will advance hopefully with jumps and features! Bike is 2019 apprx 200 miles purchased in April. Any tips on fork greatly appreciated. Bike is sweet.
If it’s a straight starter I recommend buying the SR Suntour Epixon, or the RockShox Recon RL. Make ABSOLUTE CERTAIN you are buying the STRAIGHT steerer if you have one.
I have a question you might have an answer for: I bought the 2018 SR Suntour Aion 35 27.5+ fork and plan on running it on my 27.5x3" Specialized Fuse. Only after purchasing it, I've come across comments online saying the fork only fits tires up to 2.8" wide. Do you know if that fork could fit a 27.5x3" tire? If not, would there be any harm in just switching out my front tire for a 27.5x2.8" tire? Let me know what you think.
Hi I have an older Devinci Hectik with a suntour Epicon Loc air spring with remote travel adjust The bike shop told me the suspension does not lock out is that normal?
@@ToogyHowser do you know of a rebuild kit for suntour epicon with remote travel adjust 140mm travel bike shop said damper is blown out not holding air properly
Excuse me! There is no way I can take of the lowers!! I've followed step by step all your indications, and it's useless....the lowers don't come off. Is as if the "spring legg" is glued to the lowers, it rebounds but no way it's coming off!! Am I missing something?? I would realy appreciate some advise and help! Buy the way, my fork model is an Aion E45 Boost (same as the Aion 35 boost 2018)
the first time you do it, it takes a big of force to get them off. If the nuts are off the bottom of the stanchions there is nothing else holding it together, just need to pull down harder, might have to tap the bolts sticking through the stanchions with a rubber mallot to break them free?
epixons has four adjustment options through a spacer fixed by a pin in the main shaft. you can pop the pin, place the spacer to your desired travel and put the pin back in. travel is from 80/100/120/140
I remember fork travel being easy to adjust. It was a common feature. Pike forks had a way to just dial fork travel. Now it seems like forks have gotten harder to adjust. Fox and Rockshox have moved towards shaft replacement to change travel. Glad to see SR has kept a simpler design.

I don't ever plan on taking my forks apart. But, this was oddly satisfying to watch.
yeah once you do it a few times it doesn't seem so bad haha
The suntour is QSP its meant to be taken apart. Its easy to do if you just watch a few of their service videos.
You dont service your fork?
You need to do this lol to service the fork
Great Video for those who use SR suntour forks . Love how easy they are to work on next see if suntour will give you the RC2 PCS CARTRIDGE and if you can the difference
This is why I love suntour fork, really easy to work in ! thx for the video !
Totally man! So easy to work with!

As always, I enjoy your videos sir. Above all else right now, stay safe and well, to you and your loved ones. Cheers Toogy!
Thanks Ian, hope you are doing well and staying safe!
I will try this on my suntour fork, thanks! nice content.
Just what I needed.Thanks mate
Glad it helped you out!
very helpful
brought one 2nd hand at 150mm to replace my son's 120mm coil which he can't compress as his to light.
so now I need to find some spacers to drop to 120mm cheers
Nice job man! I can't believe how easy it is to make those changes. Tip of the hat to you for the video and to Suntour!
It's so easy!
Thanks very much. Just got a 2020 Auron 35. Your video answered all of my questions.
Thanks for sharing this. Planning to get this fork model. Currently have epicon on 140mm for 27.5. Did the adjustments myself from youtube videos. And i learned another one today.
Glad it helped you out!
Convert it to an oil bath! Add the foam rings and 10ml of fork oil in each of the lowers, makes them REALLY supple!
I was surprised when I heard you say milimetre. I was like I didn't know USA liked to use metric in their videos. Then I heard the "out" 😅 Anyway thanks for sharing. Saving this since I'm planning to get a 27.5 Auron for my San Quentin
Same oil I use too. Thank you crappy tire. The servicing of my raidon is something I'll be doing soon.
Good luck, working on Suntour forks is pretty easy
Thank you. I've done it many times. I even have 2 tokens in there. I might go back to 1
How many volume spacers come preinstalled on the fork? Great video, thanks.
Hey, I am wonder if I would be able to do this to my Suntour Axon fork and if so will the process will be the same. Great video btw.
Very very helpful video thank you very much
Glad it was helpful!

Hi, is this the same process as the aion 35 fork. As I'd like to set the travel to 160mm. Thanks
yes it is!

not any worse than most other forks like this
You're brave using a chamfered socket wrench.
When you changed the travel of the fork did it change the hide of the handlebars to the ground?
Yes it increases it my the same amount you increased the travel
I know that this is a different brand, but can you do something similar to a rockshox 30 silver to extend the travel? Thanks
Can you explain it for the new durolux 38!? Thx
I have a video on the Durolux 36 EQ that should be similar, you have to buy a new air shaft to change the travel, so not as easy as they used to be!
Did lowering the travel change the head angle?
Can u make a video on how to adjust the travel on the Xcm 30 fork. If it is possible to change it

Does the spacers fit on a Suntour XCR boost 2021 coil model? I want to add 30mm on its 100mm travel
Is it ok to use gear oil or fork oil on the stanchions?
what is the difference between the spacers on the rod and the spacers under the top air cap?
the "spacers" under the air cap are actually volume reducers, they don't effect travel.

Hey weird question but do you think this fork would fit a 29r, I want the 27.5 version because you can go bigger in the travel adjustment
Yes, it would fit. But 2.5 or 2.6 tyre max

Hello Sir, Does your fork can be locked or not?
Hi, Dose Auron 35 29 inch Booster fit 29x2.6 tire? Please let me know. Thanks
It should, I was running a 29x2.5 and had lots of room

Is it okay to have no greese?
Is this also same with decreasing/increasing the travel of the durolux?
exactly the same
Does that void the warranty with Suntour? Just wondering.
Does this work on the xcr air fork
Excuse me! There is no way I can take of the lowers!! I've followed step by step all your indications, and it's useless....the lowers don't come off. Is as if the "spring legg" is glued to the lowers, it rebounds but no way it's coming off!! Am I missing something?? I would realy appreciate some advise and help! Buy the way, my fork model is an Aion E45 Boost (same as the Aion 35 boost 2018)
the first time you do it, it takes a big of force to get them off. If the nuts are off the bottom of the stanchions there is nothing else holding it together, just need to pull down harder, might have to tap the bolts sticking through the stanchions with a rubber mallot to break them free?
Does this work on suntor forks that are single spring?
why mine doesnt have air spring on it??
Does your fork have the eq airshaft?
No this one doesn’t, my new Durolux does, search the channel and you’ll find the video
If I purchase a suntour epixon can I adjust the 100mm to 120mm by removing a spacer
epixons has four adjustment options through a spacer fixed by a pin in the main shaft. you can pop the pin, place the spacer to your desired travel and put the pin back in. travel is from 80/100/120/140
@@cyrusnikko6053 thanks
Hello sir, can do that on durolux eq?
no unfortunately, the EQ requires a new air shaft to adjust travel
Can you do this on an sountour raidon fork
I have a Suntour Aion 150mm.
Is the process the same for every Suntour Air fork?
Yes it is the same for the Aion
@@ToogyHowser Awesome, thanks! :)
