Hi,
I have had my Boardman Pro HT for a month now and am loving it.

When I lockout the forks should they become rigid? Mine don't!

Cheers

Matt

    no

    it allows some movement to protect the internals

    I have the same bike and wondered the same, I got in contact with Sram and it is a percentage of travel to protect the internals and stop the seals from blowing.

    Unfortunately I did not get a manual.
    I went to the Sram site but the only pdf I could find was regarding installation.
    Thanks anyway :wink:

    Should've (not) gone to Halfords... : )

    I have a Reba Race on my Trance, it doesn't totally lock out. Ditto all above comments.
    When Chuck Norris does division, there are no remainders.
