      I realized that after I put it back together than had to go back and take it out lol. I was looking for it then realized I put it in there.

    Wonder how long it took him to realise he put the sag o-ring on before the can so now it's in the shock lol

      A few moments after I went back in and took it out. I was trying to find it lol. You can see it back on the paper towel at 3:02.

      Just as well you did lol . Does the xl can make a difference ? I'm 250lbs and the standard shock and can just feels numb

      @@mikehiggins461 I did 5 rides so far. I noticed a difference but i did go back and put the 4 tokens in and then 2 bottomless tokens and it felt even better. I would say going with the can upgrade deff put the 4 tokens in and start playing around with the bottomless tokens which are much more noticeable when riding.

      @@crankcyclesusa i had the megneg on the old SuperDeluxe and now the XL air can. I like it however, it has been almost impossible to get the outside of the can off. What type of terrain do you all ride the most?

    can should be hand tighten, if you use strap then it is difficult for rider to change tokens on trail or bikepark

      After I did a ride I went back in and put some tokens in and made it hand tight so that it’s not too hard to take off the next time around. I’ve been playing with the bottomless tokens a lot too.

    Does it say to use all 4 bottom less tokens before the others?

    • @crankcyclesusa
      @crankcyclesusa  2 дні тому +1

      It’s recommended to use 4 purple eyelet tokens first and then add the bottomless tokens as needed based on the rockshox manual.

      @@crankcyclesusa I didn't even read, I set it up like the megneg. I think I am running 2 purple eyelets and 1 band. What is the best way to remove that outer can? I can't seem to get mine to move. I have this shock and Cascade link on a 24' Bronson. It is basically a Nomad at this point, but she rides nice. I need to play with the shock more though.

    • @crankcyclesusa

      The best way to remove the can is with the rubber strap wrenches. If you don’t have any Amazon has some that aren’t too expensive. Currently I’m running 4 purple tokens and 2 bottomless ones and it feels great.

    and you should put Rockshox dynamic grease on the o rings from the air can and the seal head

    • @crankcyclesusa
      @crankcyclesusa  4 дні тому +2

      Great catch. Yea It was pretty coated in a lot of excess grease still from the factory on the inside so just smoothed that around for this one. I also went back in and put some more slick honey on some other spots after I road it for one ride.

    Appreciate the detailed breakdown! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
