They are rockshox, 100mm, gold sanctions, air on one side, QR, I.S mount, disc only, no travel adjustment.

I cannot find any serial numbers on them, underneath it just says 08.
I want to do maintenance on them so would like to try and find out specifics.

    RS forks have the serial number etched into the back of the crown.

    Look very similar, but as above the serial number should be etched into the rear.

    It's not always the case I think, I have some dual air 409s and they have no etching, just a sticker on the leg.

    Warranty replacement RS forks often don’t have the serial number stamped in.
    My Yaris had the CSU replaced and the serial number is just printed on the rear of the crown.

    The look like older Rev/Recon, around 2009 ish I'd guess.

    That's based on the older air cap, the integral cable stop for the remote and the IS brake mounts, I have some 2009 Tora and all the features are the same (except the Tora is steel stanchion).

  • Fair enough, I want to remove the lowers so wanted to make sure I could get oil and also seals if needed.


    Sounds like it should be straight forward, thanks.
