New to the Air territory of forks, but here we go.

So it's christmas and i get a new bike, and i get into a whole new world of Rockshox, cutting this story short i needed to raise the pressure of my forks as they were a little low fresh from the box. Now, the shock pump i bought (Top Peak) wasn't 100% right, thus leading to ALL the air escaping from my forks. I simply corrected the shock pump and pumped them back upto my desired pressure.

The question i'm asking is after losing all the pressure do i need to re-adjust anything else? (I didn't touch anything else) So do i just leave everything else as is? I understand the whole re-bound etc but i'm not getting at that, i just want to know after losing all the air does simply re pressurising it take it back to how it was before i lost my pressure?

Many thanks!

    Are they solo air? If so then you'll be fine.

    Dual air you need to start again with both chambers, but otherwise rebound doesn't need resetting.

    Yeah, they're solo air indeed! Basically just lost all the air in the pre-load chamber. So i'm good to go?

    Yes, just re-set the sag.

    You'll need to have a play with the rebound to get it right, but that's irrespective of you losing all the air.
