Seal Kit for Recon Slite Solo Air

Yostie

Hi guys,

I have a RockShox Recon SLite Solo Air, 120mm, that I got with my 2010 Specalized FSR XC Expert. The shock has locked open and I suspect it is due to hydraulic lock. I am interested in purchasing a seal kit to service the shock myself to get it back up a running. I have been looking on the SRAM website, but I am a little confused about which manual i should be using, as I am unsure what year model the shock is. If anyone could help me out in determining the right manual and seal kit i should be purchasing, it would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks

Simon

The serial number includes the year

My serial number is 37T90014851. Would that be 09?

Yep made in week 37 in Taiwan

Would this seal kit do the job?

If yours are alloy (gold coloured) stanchion (being SLite I assume they are), then no as that kit is for Silvers which are steel stanchion.

Thanks for the replies guys. They are alloy stanchions, so I guess it's back to googling, to find a compatible kit.

Thanks Again

Search for a kit that mentions Recon gold.

I do love Rockshox simplicity, Silvers have silver steel stanchions and golds have gold aluminium stanchions.

Makes no difference for seal kits - silver of gold - any 32mm Recon kit will fit. Apart from aluminium or steel, everything else is the same.

Presumably you are in OZ so not much use directly, but this I've used this guy - see his advert for compatibility.
