Removing Rockshox lowers

BigAl

Mmmm, fork servicing is new to me, but..... I'm following the RS manual, but can't get the lowers off :?

Recon solo air

I've removed the air undone the bolts and tapped and tapped them but they ain't coming off

What have I not done?

How much tapping are you doing? My rebas took a fair bit of whacking last time, maybe you just need to be more forceful?

The lower bolts, you need to unwind them about half way then hit them back up the fork to release the lowers. Have you done this?

If you just remove the bolts they will never come off!

Failing that, pull harder!

I had to 'tap' mine hard enough to make me worry about breaking something. All fine though, with a big rubber mallet.

All good now. I was being a bit too delicate before

Given them a bit more of a whack and job done - now in two halves

Thanks guys
