Title: Seized front compression damping adjuster
Post by: frenchgixxer on Sunday, 24 July 2022, 02:23 AM

Having just picked up my k2, I adjusted the suspension settings ala MCN, as a starting point, However the adjuster at the bottom of the right hand side fork stanchion (sitting in bike) is frozen solid, can't get it to move at all.
Has anyone any suggestions as to how I might free it off?
Thanks in advance

Thanks Hooli, tried a search but that didn't come up. Thats taking everything off and apart, was hoping their might be a way in situ? Guess I'll try the old penetrating fluid and gently wiggle!
