Let me show you how to use a shock pump to properly tune the suspension of an air fork.
A mountain bike's front suspension needs to be maintained every once in awhile by checking to see if you have the proper PSI for your weight.
Unfortunately, a normal floor pump will not work and you'll need a high pressure shock pump.
If you are interested in the exact PRO Bike Tool shock pump that I use in this video please check out this link here: amzn.to/3ldLEvt (affiliate link)

Thanks! So hard to find specific info on my old fork, I couldn't even tell where the schrader valve was located. Judging by this video it's probably underneath the cover on top of the fork, not the hex screw on the bottom which looks too small to hide a valve anyway. I'm just gonna gestimate the air pressure tho, 65 psi seems to be for my weight.

Sometimes even easy things are hard if you don’t just get it at first. I watched your video just to get started on my first ever E-Bike from M2S which came with a bad center/rear DNM shock. The dial just froze and it seemed like everything was oily. Called their support who advised shock no good. Lasted about 10 hours on my street, going around the block as Covid had just hit and being 70+ I wasn’t going places yet. Your video was great, thanks, I appreciated it!

Wa wondering! I have been trying my shock pump on my dropper post and when I unscrew the the red dial it lets air out! I believe I am doing everything the way you have in the video - any suggestions? Thanks
@MichianaMadman
@MichianaMadman 2 года назад
I believe the air that comes out when you loosen the red dial is just from the pump’s hose and the pressure. Not from the fork/post.

Can this pump a shock beyond 300 psi? Say maybe 350 psi? The description in your Amazon link says 300 psi, but the guage says 400 psi 🙃
@MichianaMadman
@MichianaMadman Год назад
The pump can be used up to 400psi. It is very confusing how the manufacturer words it.

Did you use the top nut to open the air valve? It is the red one.

@MichianaMadman
@MichianaMadman 2 года назад
No, this is only used for the your front or rear suspension. It can also be used on a dropper post.

Can you use a shock pump with tyres
@MichianaMadman
@MichianaMadman 9 месяцев назад
You probably could if it fits the valve. It just might take a lot longer.

Is there a way to check how much psi is in the fork or shock
@MichianaMadman
@MichianaMadman 5 месяцев назад
My pump has a gauge on it. A tire gauge won’t work.

How do you completely deflate the fork using the pump?
@MichianaMadman
@MichianaMadman 5 месяцев назад
I assume you could push and hold the button that releases the air.
