Increasing fork PSI

Posts: 354
I need to increase the PSI on my Fox FL32's from it's current 80 to 105 PSI however on using my pump it refuses to increase :roll: there is just too much resistance for the pump.
Am i doing something stupid or do i need a track pump.....
Thanks in advance

what pump do you have?
a shock/fork pump will do that easily."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

A Spesh Air Tool (shock) goes up to 220 in shock mode.
Maybe i screwed it on too tight?Nicolai CC0 -
sounds like a poor pump."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Have you got it on the right setting - low volume high pressure?I don't do smileys.

iirc screwing it in too far can knacker the valve0

pfft. REAL men just inflate their forks and shocks with their mouths. But failing that, sounds like a dodgy pump.0

Yeah, there's two ways of unscrewing the handle. One for tyres one for shocks.
