i have tried to increase the pressure in my rock shox sids. they are the custom specialized ones with the brain. i have tried to pump air using my shock pump into both the chambers, and a small amount of pressure has gone into the top but none seems to go into the bottom. i have diognosed its not a faulty pump as i have managed to pump up my other fox forks.
Any help would be truly greatful

  • Check that the valve core is screwed in nice and snug, I've had one work loose before.

    You should use a special tool (cheap from car spares shop), but I've used needle nose pliers before. Don't overtighten it though.
