now my RL got 140mm after adjusting the top black bushing thing before the coil to the last small holes and put a spacer between it to prevent the fork for clancking. time to ride my 🚲👍
Why bother taking the lowers off at all? It looks like this job can be done in a lot less time by taking the air cap off, removing the foot nut on the air side and pushing the negative spring assembly out through the top of the fork by putting a rod through the foot nut hole. This does assume that the interior of the fork doesn't need cleaning of course.
mine is the 32 Evolution Series 140mm (Cannondale Trigger 4 2014) it has a 45mm long white volume spacer as shown... can I remove it as on the new colored tokens? I'm not a jumper, so I never used full travel yet thanks
Why would you want to reduce the travel? You know that it will change the geometry of the bike very much. Besides you want the rear travel to be about the same as the front. It may be dangerous on downhills to have that changed geometry. Just saying.
it is just a volume spacer, you can remove it. It works same way as tokens, just check if the top cap where it is attached is same as in the video where there isn't the white spacer.
Why on JC’s green earth wold you wanna DECREASE travel?? Came here to learn how to INCREASE my fork’s travel!
Exactly!
Steeper head angle and better climbing.
This is probably the best how to video I have ever seen, thank you for being Concise and to the point. Well done!!
now i can open my fox rl 120mm to remove those spacer. very onformative video. thanx!.

Where can I find those spacers? I have a 2013 Fox Float 32 that I want to drop to 100mm.
100mm travel can change to 120mm on fox 32 sc 2020 edition?
Wondering the same thing
Hello,
I have a fox 36 180mm 2015 26" rebuild to 27,5 monocoque, and down to 160mm... How mutch oil need 30cc or 40cc? And what's the oil to use?
Thanks for this video it has been extremely helpful.
The vid highlights the use of a 20wt gold oil but your oil guide says use 10wt green, which is it?
Very good video 👍
does this shorten the axel-to-crown length as well?
On their web site Fox say that the travel can also be increased. Yet no mention of it in this video, only travel reduction.
riteandleft he mentions increasing travel by adding the spacers to the opposite end as you would in reduction... watch again.
@@HBosse90 where does it say that? I've watched it 4 times and am either missing it or its not there.
@@HBosse90 No "he" doesn't.
Can you detach the top cap from the white volume spacer, if the top cap is attached to the white air volume spacer? 3:14
What are the reasons for so many differences in the air piston assembly?

Does anyone know where I can find these white VOLUME SPACERS?

Jokes on you, I have a 2010 rockshocks revelation rl and a fox triad specialized
