Suntour XCT V2 Fork Service - Disassemble/Clean/Lube/Re-assemble

I show how to tear down, clean, lubricate and rebuild Suntour XCT (SF10-XCT-V2) forks/shocks. Periodic maintenance will help prolong the life of the fork and maintain performance. Basic service to keep your suspension working and from becoming stiff or frozen. I bought this fork on craigslist for $20. The XCT fork models have varied over the years. This fork is a SF10-XCT-V2-P-26-80. The bike is a 2010 Specialized Hardrock.
There are different versions of XCT forks. This is an SF10. If yours has a lockout, you have a different version. You might check out my video overhauling an XCR fork that has a lockout:
• Suntour XCR Fork Servi...
The part number for the plastic sleeve is FEE460-10.
Suntour XCT Fork Service:
• Suntour XCT Fork Servi...
* Use grease made for forks. I use Slickoleum which is also sold under the name Slick Honey. You can also use SRAM Butter or Judy Butter. If the fork uses oil, use the proper fork oil. Use of a grease/oil not made specifically for forks can damage the plastic/polyurethane parts, or otherwise leave the fork not working properly.

I notice these forks have a serial number. This reveals some information to the person who understand some basics. Fork travel, where it's made and of course serial. You may have to contact SR Suntour for advice on the part numbers like I did. One of my forks I bought New Old Stock didn't include a brake hose clamp, so I finally found a dealer than did sell them and ordered 2 of them. I may lose one in the future, or break it. but cheap. Really helpful.

Great vid. RJ. Here's a cheap hack that doesn't seem to get a lot of mention. Look up plumbers tape or silicone tape. Usually its 1-inch wide and come in rolls. I bought a 10 foot roll in black (in adhesives aisle) at home depot for $4.95. wrap around chainstay to prevent chain slap. It only sticks to itself and pretty thick. A little prettier than old tire tube and zip ties. Enough to do 3 bikes i think.

@chrislukes9037
@chrislukes9037 4 года назад
@@paullmight42 I think usually forks will have the spring in one fork leg (whether an air or coil spring) and the damping parts in the other (compression and/or rebound damping, if they have these at all). Since this fork has no damping there's nothing in the other leg, but the other coiled forks you've seen with two bolts might have had damping parts in the other leg that needed to be bolted in order to slide with the lowers.

I can’t imagine that a marine grade bearing grease would damage the plastic parts. However, even without damaging the fork it still probably wouldn’t give the same performance as slickoleum or Judy butter. Just another option if you’re really on a tight budget.

Actually, the information here is enough for the average person to take on. There were no bearing settings, or pre-load adjustments for anything. Just loosen parts, take note, clean, regrease and install. But don't over do it. The brake lever arms you could just unbolt and put to the side and they will reattach without further adjustment.

Alternatively, your fork might have damping circuits in the other leg (these don't provide the *support* for the suspension that the spring does, but help to fine-tune the *rate* at which the forks compress and rebound). Often forks that have damping will have the spring in one leg and the dampers in the other.

It went together easily in less than an hour. ru-vid.comUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Make sure the front fork is forward or the pedals will hit the front tire. Tires are both a little soft so it needs air before I ride it. The rear wheel didn't come with a clamp regular bolts hold it on. The front had the clamp. No scratches out of box. Rims are a little off with a slight wobble. They could have spent more time with the spoke tool fixing the run out. So far out of the box I'm happy with it. I did replace the pedals with a nice aftermarket set. After riding it a bit my A$$ is a bit sore so I ordered another seat. Overall I'm nearly 60 and didn't ride a bike in 30 years. I like my new 29" Schwinn. It will be used for casual rides with my friend.

6:00 RJ, you need to get yourself a bottle brush from a brew shop.

I have bottle brushes. They get greasy and hard to clean. They just don't work as well.

Hello RJ, sorry to be a bother but do you know how to measure a BMX Bottom bracket?
@RJTheBikeGuy
@RJTheBikeGuy 4 года назад
Many BMX bikes have Ashtabula one piece cranks and the bottom bracket is standard.

Is a Trek mountain bike 1000 that has the composted frame about the same to do maintenance on the forks? What about the shock rock for the rear end and the swivel rear frame? Thank you for any information. I need to learn the maintenance on my mountain bike, I use to take it in but now I am retired and the maintenance cost is up to around 180 dollars.

It's the brand/model of the fork, not the bike. Different forks are different. If your bike has a Suntour XCT V2 fork, then this video is relevant. I have other fork videos too. I don't have any for rear shocks really.

@@Blu-Man Pretty much any bike from Walmart/Target is junk. There is a reason they can sell them for $100-200. Because they are cheap junk made with cheap junk parts. They will break.

BE CAREFUL SOME GAS CHARGE SHOCKS CAN SHOOT OUT LIKE A SHOT GUN SLUG THIS OLDER CHEAP FORK IS NOT DANGEROUS BUT SOME BETTER FORKS SHOULD NOT BE MESSED WITH ! THIS CHEAP FORK EVEN WHEN ITS WORKING 100 % IS DANGEROUS JUNK PERFORMANCE WISE BETTER OFF DRILLING THROUGH IT AND LOCKING IT OUT .
