Help!!!!!!!!!!
I have a Rockshox Mag 10 and it is leaking air. I cannot figure out why. Does anybody here know about Mag 10's?
|
according to the troubleshooting manual I found online my fork is shot.
|
Man I am sorry to hear that. I know how much you liked that, and how hard it is to get funds for a new one.
|
I have no money to spend at all.
|
Man, that's a bummer.
Here's a couple of cheap deals though www.jensonusa.com MANITOU MAGNUM '01 OE $65 was $179 MANITOU MAGNUM R FORK '00 $85 '01 RockShox Judy C $89 Don't eat any Krispy Kremes this week and you should be able to save up enough:D |
So are you like bikeless right now because of this? If so what is your stack height?
|
I am not exactly clear on WHAT stack height is, and what my stack height IS. I think it is about 1 inch. I took apart one of the legs and it seems that the problem may be some bad valves. As I have nothing to loose at the moment I am going to try replacing those. Also, the adjuster rod (I dunno if that is the correct term) is bent in 2 places. I don't think it really effects the performance but I wonder if it is better when it is straight. I am totally without a bike.
|
I think I am going to get something cheap(like a Jett from Pricepoint) until I can afford something better. But I have to get my bike set up so I can ride.
|
fubar -
Obviously, money is an issue, but for $5 more than the Jett, you can get the Manitou Magnum from Jenson, which I believe is a much better fork than the Jett. The other two forks I listed from Jenson are a few dollars more, but that money goes a long way in it gets you damping. |
I have an old 1" steertube, threaded, chromed tange road fork you could use....but it uses calipers. Can't take anything wider than, say, 35mm?
|
I have a 1 1/8''. Thanks for offering, it is really great of you. I'll pull through this. At least I wasn't riding the bike when something went wrong.

Originally posted by Hunter Measure your forks steer tube length from bottom of race to top and add the height of the headset. |
BTW, there ARE spacers which can save you from needing to cut small amounts off the steerer. Any bike shop has them. If your steerer is threaded, it is probably a good idea to let them cut a steerer, rather than doing it at home with a hacksaw.
