problem with dj3`s 07

freeride06 · May 2007

i got a new bike for christmas and it came with dirt jumper 3`s.
firstly they have chrome legs. iv never seen the 07 ones with chrome legs so i just wondered if there was two types.
secondly they have started leaking oil and air. there is oil all over the legs and crown. it seems to be coming from the vavle where you pump them up. they are as soft as anything and bottom out when i land from something over about 2 foot. i tried pumping them up but the air just comes out.
whats going on?

They're not DJ3's their DJ3.5's which i think is the new name for dirt jams, that would explain the chrome sanctions and the problems are just because they're basically dirt jams so are just not very good at all.

Still, never seen any with chrome legs. It will cost you a fair bit for new seals, and also for new fork oil. Your proberly looking at something between œ30-œ60 for a repair. I would just save and get some new forks, proberly well worth it. Argyle 309's.

I haven't seen any with chrome legs either but i just thought he was confused between legs and sanctions but i'm not exactly sure.

Are you sure they're DJ3's? The DJ4's come with chrome legs and have got problems with the oil... though i'm not sure they have air in them...

If its air/oil leaking from the top of the crown, remove the top cap, check the rubber o-ring is all in one piece and re fit. may well fix your problem.

Otherwise, email marzocchi/windwave.

check the valve cores are tight. if lose tighten if tight replace. (any car valve core will work).
