My rock shox have a bad seal and the lockout isnt working, so i am thinking about getting a new fork instead of repairing it but dont know how to measure mine so i can get the same size etc.

At first I thought the title said, How do i measure my socks?
What's the bike and model of fork? It's going to be easier to tell what the travel is if we know what the fork is.
what model fork is it?Originally Posted by rocco1005
what do you want to measure? travel? head tube?
i read the same thing....
I just got the bike from someone as i am new to mountain biking, it is a Giant and the guy changed the original fork out with this RockShox one, i cant see a model number or anything on the fork just its a SID and it says dual air.

So it's anywhere between 80 and 120mm.
Most likely 80mm or 100mm.....
I would consider getting it repaired. The sid is a very high end fork.
ok sounds good, ill look into getting it repaired instead, thanks. If i have to send it back to the company to get repaired do you have any idea on the turn-around time on repairing these?
If you take it to a lbs, they should be able to get the parts to fix it, and fix it there. So depending on how busy the shop is it could be anywhere at most from 1-2 weeks.
1-2 weeks? seriously? is that normal? we usually rebuild forks the same day, or next day if super busy...
Around here it can be, but is usually just a few days.
Western Slope people just know how to get things done!

When I had suspension, if I needed work on the suspension fork, and parts were in stock, it would be done in around an hour. Otherwise, next day.
