In this video I disassembled a Future Shock 1.5 Cartridge for maintenance, at the beginning it made me sweat cold. Luckily with a lot of patience it is possible to assemble it back.
If you want a safer way to do the maintenance our friend from Cycle2Adventure made a video.

I ride Roubaix just like you. Specialized has ended their maintenance program, so my only option is to either maintain it myself or get a new shock. So i decided to do the maintenance my self. Because its too expensive to buy it and this video is great. thanks👍

Thank you very much for your compliment! If you are careful it is definitely doable. Just take your time. Good Luck!

But they are terrible! They ended maintenance on the products they sell, and if its not working well, they tell us to replace it with a new one！😢@@YuichiTamaki

@@user-qp9ty9wj5v Yes indeed, the system works great but it is too expensive to replace. On the bright side, if you take care of it and don't let water get in I don't see any reason for it to be replaced.

I change the Black spring to Blue = Problem solve = much better responce from cracked road's & other ellements with!

@@harrylen1688 I really wanted to try but since I bought the bike used, it didn't come with the spares. Somehow I cannot find them around my area. Just out of curiosity could you tell me how much you weigh?

I maintain my own FSR, been doing that since v1.0. Polishing the friction surfaces with compound helps, using the proper thick grease is important. I’m now looking at an FSR delete-insert to lighten up the front end. The right tyre pressure, especially on 42c , is a more elegant resonance solution.

@YuichiTamaki 2 месяца назад

Thanks you very much for the tips! I would like to try high volume tires some day. I believe the benefit of riding 28C - 32C is lower rolling resistance?

@neilk22 2 месяца назад

@@YuichiTamakidepends on your application-my bike is a diverge and i ride predominantly gravel. I think you're on a Roubaix and ride tarmac? Tbh i dont see the point of an FSR on tarmac over just running 32c tires.

Thank you very much for the video, it is the best 1.5 on RU-vid. Is WD40 a good option to start cleaning? Another question, what grease do you recommend I buy? I see that we also have to put carbon fiber grease when mounting it on the bike.

@YuichiTamaki 3 месяца назад

Thank you very much for the nice compliment! WD40 is a water displacer so I believe it is not the best option for cleaning. But to be honest if you just wipe the old grease it is fine. As for the grease the recommended thing is going by the manual but since I never do it.. LoL. I would recommend a Shimano Bearing grease. Since the grease is lighter in weight regular maintenance would be ideal. About the Carbon fiber grease, I don´t use it and didn't have any issues. Actually when I unmounted the system for the first time there was non applied to it. Hope it was helpful! please as always take it as an advise from a RU-vid DIYer. Have a good day!

you need a new rubber boot :) CAUTION: Top tube accessory bags that strap around the steerer tube below the stem are not compatible with a Future Shock damper, which is equipped on all models. Use of a strap around the boot of the Future Shock damper may damage the boot (S209900002), which will impair the waterproofness of the Future Shock.

Hello! Yes I need one :( For now I just don't ride on rainy days.

Thanks for the information too!
