My rcp-2 just blew apart completely. Had to zip tie to make it home 7 miles on my Motoped. Should I grab a rcp2s or find something a little beefier? I’m 170 pounds but often ride with heavy backpack.
Thanks for the useful video, I'm really struggling to find out what the ifp level should be at, it looks like you used 28mm from the video, could you clarify what depth you used and if it works well like that?
Good video but does it make any different to the shock like make stiffer or anything as my new rcp-2s very soft anything i can do to stop that or has to upgrade the 550lb coil to 750lb?
shallower IFP depth makes it more progressive. if 550 too soft then move the shock to a different mounting point if your frame allows it, if not then you gotta get a stiffer spring
Did you found a solution? Otherwise it can be done by adding 25mm washers between piston and the cap to make it shorter. Bu you will reduce your travel go for ao 38 instead?
I use the cheapest dnm air shock they sell and had it for about 2 years, do you know if it can be serviced, since I can't find anything or any service manuals for it. Thanks!
just download pretty much any air shock service manual. they're all very much similar. just do an air can service, don't go looking for trouble inside the damper
@@rondg2 yeah the damper I heard is sealed an non serviceable but I'm trying to take the air can off, and it's a pain. Even wrapping a tube around didn't help😂
Hi, how are you, what an excellent and interesting video, I liked it a lot in the way I explain it, only I have some questions, it can help me, the first is how he got the cover to inflate it with air or where I got the shock absorber, because it is pressurized with nitrogen and you did it with air how you did it or how you modified it I await your response, thank you
@@Cpt_zhengit depends what the eye to eye length is, just check with the seller you brought from what the stroke is, then convert from mm to inches and you’ll get the right spring dimensions
So how deep into the reservoir does the IFP go? I see you measure it with the vernier caliper, but where did you set it? (And where did you find that info?) Thanks.
Thanks for sharing the video. I am wondering how you established 200psi for your fill? I watched your video on the Schrader valve mod and was thinking if the factory uses a rubber plug and fills by poking a needle through the plug, would that rubber plug even hold 200psi? I have no idea myself, I'm asking incase you have any additional insight.
The difference between O and N is that Nitrogen is less sensitive to temperature, so it does not varies its pressure with temperature changes. As he said, if you're not an expert rider running a world cup, you won't notice any difference. (And if you are, you wouldn't have this beautyfull budget piece of crap jajaja)
