I have Rockshox xloc and it is weeping fluid at the lockout hose banjo connection. in photo below, on right hand side you see the lockout mechanism and the banjo fitting connected to the hose.

probably is a worn/damaged o-ring but I haven't worked out how to take it apart - any help in fixing this appreciated.

    Take it apart, measure o-ring, replace.

    Almost certainly 6mm as used by Shimano and SRAM for banjo connections at brake callipers.

  • To take apart all the Rock Shox motion control cartdridges, in all the models you only have to disassebly from the lower side, to plastic clips on the lower part of the cartdridge. Unclip them and you can get access inside, to maintain, revalving, etc...
