Check the first two numbers of the serial number on the back of the crown.0

They look exactly the same as my mate's 2011s0

Ah yes, sorry, not first two!0

No worries, I appreciate the help and got me on the right track
I actually emailed Sram earlier, thinking that I wouldn't get a reply, but got a response saying;
Thanks for your message. Your fork shows up as:
12 FS RBA RL 26QR DA100 WHTSO RMT
This is a 2012 Reba RL Dual Air with 100mm of travel, remote compression damper. This fork has an A1 chassis.
So at lease I now 100% know they're 2012 so know how much oil to use.0 -
Impressive from SRAM!0
-
Oh really, they're not normally good then?
Must have caught them on a good day.0 -
No, just meant that's impressive of any multinational company! I'd expect a generic email after 3 weeks normally. Fair play to them!0
-
Yer I was very impressed.0

Ive recently been to the SRAM Tech Centre in Windsor for some training through work. They have a workshop there where the technicians answer emails on their computers, phone calls through their headsets, and work on forks all at the same time. So they're pretty busy people but at least you are getting info from the guys who actually do the work and servicing rather than someone who is sat behind a desk all day.0

That's good to know, do they make sandwiches to order too.. BLT along with a fork service please.
How'd you get on there?0 -
Haha.
It was really good. Gained some more insight into the internals of their forks, rear shocks, and brakes. They had 'cutaway' brake levers and enlarged, see-through versions of the RS dampers. We did some brake bleeding and reverb bleeding also so all in all a good day!0 -
Sounds like fun.
See through dampers is a clever idea, get to see how it all works I guess?0
