Buzzy's Slick Honey Cycle Fork Suspension Grease

Product Information

What's going to give the best results when lubricating a Rockshox Airspring in a Lyric l, Pike or Zeb. Make sure that you have approximately half of the available threads engaged with your tool before striking with your mallet. Thread the Spool Valve Cap Removal tool (PN: 398-00-739) clockwise into the Spool Valve and pull up to remove.

I have poured over the Rock Shox bluto thread for a couple days now, as I need to major maintenance done to my Bluto, and I am seeing favorable reviews of the slickoleum grease during ring and piston replacement along with stanchion maintenance. While the original style of fill tool is shown, follow the next steps with either fill tool to complete the gas fill of the Transfer seatpost. Install the new Upper Bushing from the kit with its "crown-shaped" portion oriented toward the top of the post.Clamp the Upper Post in your bike work stand, then slowly unthread the bleed screw to release IFP pressure. Look, if stanchion lube was a thing you can bet (spend) your bottom dollar the fork manufacturers wouldn’t leave that money on the table for aftermarket companies.

Now that the fork is full of the correct bath oil, slide the lowers far enough on to the upper tubes so that the damper rod and air spring rod come out of the lower legs. There are no wrench flats on this part, so be careful not to use more clamping force than is required to loosen the part.I would agree, normally, but fork sliders need extremely slippy lube and I’m not sure that thick grease like this is ideal. Not that I expect anyone here to remember my stance on things, but I (deleted) hate SRAM, and make that known regularly.

The easiest way to service your fork is to hold the fork by either the steerer tube or the lower leg in a bike stand.We wash our bikes after every ride, little and often is better than waiting and turning it into a hellishly big job! NOTE: Either style of gas fill assembly (Original 803-01-595 or the new compact version 803-01-931) can be used with a High Pressure Shock Pump if needed.
