I was adjusting the rebound dial on the rear shock (07 Stumpjumper expert, Fox float r with brain) and the dial will only turn one direction, its now stuck on very slow rebound.
There does not seem to be anything stuck in the dial to stop it moving.

Is there anything I can do about this, I was hoping to go for a ride in the morning, or will I have to get it serviced.

Thanks In advance for your help

    you should be able to remove the dial, then give it a good clean on both ends.

  • Thanks but I can not find anything that details the rebound dial.

    the dial is difficult to get at (see picture)

    Hmm compressed air or some contact cleaner or cycle disc brake cleaner and spray it to clear the crap out and then you may beable to un jam it.

    Or you may have just jammed it up tight and more force is needed. Sorry no further ideas.
