Always love a fork service/upgrade video. Air spring and damper upgrades are super easy with the right tools. And yeah, compared to a new fork this is an affordable upgrade.
for sure. its nice how they made easy enough for all people to do these upgrades
I've already done this conversion to a fork yet sat and watched this video because I found it strangely relaxing. Nicely done!
Thank you for the kind words my friend. Love doing these tutorials
Great video. Rockshox recommend you grease liberally above the air-spring, as that's where the piston does all the work - also, on the air-spring side again, you should drop in 3mls of 0-30w, on top of the piston, so where the tokens are; the oil will keep the piston/seals lubed. I hope this helps for next time.
Awesome dude thanks for the tips. I'll be sure to do that next time
What grease should you use? Sram Butter?
6:49 Grease also applied on the metal axle and on the rubbers sliding on it, not only on the rings!!!
🤘thanks my dude
@@RydenDirty No problem, thanks for the video for starters and I forgot also something else
Maybe you know it but it is better to embed this in your video.
ua-cam.com/video/V6NUwNKH0ao/v-deo.html Before sliding in the red cylinder, you need to put 1ml of oil in there.
and before closing this piston from the top, you need to add another 3ml on the upper part. Lower leg you got it for sure 10 ml.
Just yesterday I did my upgrade on a lyrik both charger and piston.
Hope this helps you and your audience too.
This is a really great video! I'm going to upgrade the 150 Yari That came with my Hightower. I'll have this video up and running while I do it. I think you can even find Lyrik decals after the upgrade. Thanks!
Awesome dude glad I could help👍
Perfect movie. This is what I was looking for. Greetings from Poland.
Awesome glad I could help
Well dang I was looking forward to a house jump. 😂
Good video bro!
Hahahah next video
HOUSE JUMP HOUSE JUMP HOUSE JUMP
Nice vid mate, straight to the point and clear👍
Thank you for the kind words my friend 🤙
Cool video.
Just one correction - that's not a high speed compression adjuster. Twisting the large knob adjusts both high speed and low speed compression simultaneously.
🤔Then what's the small knob that says lSC?
You are actually both correct...The large knob firms up the dampening both HSC/LSC. However, when the large knob is in open position, the LSC dial adjusts the LSC. This design was for bike where you wanted a pedal platform for a long climb, but then flick it open for descending. The middle setting is for the up and down sections.
The outer one is weather a high speed nor a low speed compression. It's a lock out. The inner one is a low speed compression. So while the inner one is for the slow compression the outer one is a pedal plattform for more efficient pedaling.
@@noah1239 The Charger 2.1 RCT3 does not have any lockout. It has an internally preadjusted HSC and two dials to adjust the LSC, the smaller one being an adjustment knob for small increments in LSC when the big dial is in the open position and the bigger one has two additional preadjusted stages of LSC - threshold for quick pedaling platform options. (the T3 part of the RCT3 designation; Rebound, Compression, 3xThreshold)
The Charger 2.1 RC2 has Rebound, HSC and LSC.
Great video Erik
Thanks for sharing, this is exactly what I need for my Lyrik.
I'll watch to see if they also deliver to Switzerland.
Your video is very exemplary and helpful.
Keep up the good work, have fun and ride on.
Thanks brochacho. Super easy to do 👍
You can order it in Germany right away: bike-components.de has the upgrade kit for the Yari to 2.1 RCT3 (Lyrik) available and even on sale at the moment for 179,- Just got mine today ;) www.bike-components.de/de/RockShox/Charger-2-1-RCT3-Upgrade-Kit-fuer-Lyrik-Yari-A1-B1-ab-Modell-2016-p71117/
@@chrispfeiffer5178 Thanks for the tip and the link Chris. Have fun with it. Ride on buddy
Thinking about doing this to my domain fork, apparently I can turn it I to a zeb ultimate this way
Gotta say though I'm not super confident I wouldn't mess this up
Honestly it’s easier than you think. Give it a shot my dude
Thanks dude! Helped a lot for when I was upgrading my damper! 🤙
No problem my guy
Well I know who to consult if I have issues with my forks 😉
lol for sure brotha
Nice im gonna go down to 150 from 160 cause I'm switching the fork to a hard tail. Cheers bro thanks for the video
Nice👍 It's pretty awesome how easy and cheap it is.
Did these upgrades to my revelation and it is a stellar upgrade! Great vid as usual man!
It really is. Too bad I upgraded right after I did this with a ZEB
@@RydenDirty It seems to be how it goes with upgrades lol
@@chickensendies yup. Haven't tried it out yet cause I blew my dvo coil. It gets to to dvo tomorrow
@@RydenDirty Oh no dice man! I'm sure they'll take care of you no problem! 😁😁😁
@@chickensendies yup they got it today and im in direct contact with them. hopefully it doesn't take too long 🤞
Right on man, good upgrade!!
Hell ya it was. And then I traded them for another fork lol
@@RydenDirty 😂
Nice indepth video. Lots of these suspension videos on YT are just some dude pointing at stuff with bad subtitles lmao. Lets ride soon bro
Fo sho dooo. When it cools down
Thanks for a great instructional video @RydenDirty! I have a question you could maybe help with:
I have a Yari Charger RC I was gonna do the 200 h service to. Now I'm considering upgrading both the damper and air spring - if I go ahead with the upgrade, do I still need to buy the 200 hour service kit for the procedure or am I fine with the Dust Wiper Upgrade Kit? In other words, what seals and o-rings and stuff do I need for the procedure since I'm upgrading AND servicing the fork?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Hey thanks for the kind words. And to answer your question. I don’t think you would need the 200 h kit due to the fact all of your parts will be new. On top of that the new damper is a sealed system. You just drop it in and it’s ready to go. Hope that helps
OK thanks for your quick reply! ✌🏻
Great video. Would this work with the Yari that came on my 07 spech enduro 29?
Would love to get it up to 170/180.
I know the Yari can go to 170 from what it know. But I couldn’t tell you for sure
I actually would use the grease Rockshox recommends
Nice. I used this cause that's what Jeff Kendall weed used
Great video, thanks for posting it up 👍🏻
No problem 🤟🤟🤟
Very nice made video. Thanks!
Thank you for watching 👊🤟
Great video. I appreciate the walk through. Just one question. When adding the oil, where does it go? I mean, does it go in where the screws thread into the air spring (at the bottom, so push the lower on all the way) or in-between the lower and where the screw threads into the air spring (so make some space and add the oil)? Thanks again. Great video, I learned a lot.
Hey thanks for watching. What you want to do is put the oil in to where it can be in the bottom of the lower legs. Not where you screw it in
@@RydenDirty perfect, thanks.
@@j_jf6937 no problem
I did the same but disappointed
Plenty off rebound to play with
Very little compression??
I would agree
You make it look easy man..😅, what fork woul you recomend for my Siskiu D7, but for a 29er, i would realy appreciate your opinion being a newbie, and a fan of your channel..😅✌🤘
Hey buddy just saw your comment. As far as fork upgrade I would look rockshox yari. Pretty awesome fork for a good price and also you can change the travel on it.
Hello . My goal is to make the Yari 160mm fork soft for a rider who weighs only 40kg. Maybe you can suggest something else?
Here try this. This is drama website for the pressure based on weight
www.sram.com/contentassets/eab2caf78dc74af0978d3f9e205254e0/gen.0000000005624_2019_fs_oil_air_coil_token_specification_english_rev_a_0.pdf
Awesome step by step!! Where did you find the torque specs? Didn’t find them on the sram site but also did not google all over either. ANyway, thanks again!!
If you go to the sram website for the fork you have it's all on there. Google service manual for your fork🤙
Hi mate would you upgrade a Yari or get the cheapest Domain?
I’d for sure get the domain. That thing is a beast of a fork. Plus I like the 38mm stanchions. But I also ride aggressively
Thanks for this, it looks doable🙏🤗. I just wondered if I upgrade to a longer travel spring, will it be different to a (new) fork with bigger travel? Ghost says that my bike only is made for 160mm. Sorry I'm just not familiar with all this🤷♂️😁
Its possible to change travel depending on the fork style. If there is an air spring more than likely you can change it. As far as your frame that's a different story. you'll have to look that up
I understand, I guess since they don't recommend they haven't tested it. Otherwise it's a Rochox yari and this new damper will make it greater🤗. Thanks for your help 🙏
Super video man, really like your mecanics video. Do you think this damper can fit a rockshox gold 35 rl 2021?
Not sure to be honest
Nice! I just got a Yari on sale at a local bike shop. Would you say the Charger is worth the upgrade over the stock Motion Control damper?
In my opinion absolutely my dude
Great video mate.
I have a question.. I just bought a yari 2021 with 170mm of travel, can i change only the air shaft to 180mm? Without changing the charger on the other side?
Thanks
Yes I believe so 🤟
Nice video!!! I did the same thing… but on my rct3 my rebound work correctly but without click sound. I have no idea why?! Thoughts?
Thanks mang 🤔Not too sure about that one. Now I'm curious
thanks for the video. going to get this upgrade too. how does it ride after upgrade?
Its great to be honest. its a very versatile fork
I bought a bike with a Rockshox Yari and think about to do the same but the fork is probaby from 2017. No clue if it's gone work with latest parts
I believe that the parts will be different for sure unfortunately. this was a 2020 fork
@@RydenDirty I got hyped aboud upgrading my fork an found while researching that the charger 2.1 rc/rct damper and the debone air upgrade kit fit for all 2016 yari and lyrik fork and younger. That's so f*cking awsome that my hype will not stop until my fork is set up *O*
what about orings from the set ?
Not sure what you mean
@@RydenDirty i found an oring in mu box, and trying to find a use :-)
@@MichaCieplik I’m not actually sure my dude. There should be a diagram for all parts on their website
if you are increasing travel do you need a diferent damper?
I think it depends on how much of a jump you do
I have the Yari in 27.5". Anyone know if the upgrade is 29" specific? Or are they the same?
To be honest I’m not sure 🤔
Hello, thanks for the tutorial, is it bad if i put some fox 20wt gold oil in lowers ?
I wouldn't recommend it. It's better to use the right oil cause it could cause some problems
@@RydenDirty Thanks, i think i will buy the 0w30 oil.I dont know why all people recommend fox oil.
In my pike i did put some 0w30 engine oil worked perfectly but its better to use the recommended oil
Is the charger 2.1 a one fits all size? Or is there a specific size for every travel size ?
Cheers !
To be honest I know there are different sizes for travel but im not sure what they are.
I would like to upgrade my 160yari 2021 and also make it 150. Does the overall lenght chance? Making my bike less slack??
Technically yes from what I understand but not by much
Can i use the non 2.1 charger damper? The older one
I’m not sure to be honest
Great video! After installing this, what did you think? We have the 180 yari setup now & I find big hits a little harsh. Also brake bumps can be tough but all in all like this fork.
Thank you so much🙏 I sold the fork about 2 weeks after I did this and I’m kinda bummed that I did. I really want led to try a fox 36 and I regretted trading it.
So the Fox36 is not as good as the Rockshok
I'm about to do this after seeing this great video
@@stephenjeverett3802 thanks for the kind words. I need to do more of these videos on my other forks
@@RydenDirty I have my bike at the shop now looking to do this. We were just at highland bike park and running the recommended pressure was great for tech but bottoming out on larger jumps and drops. Going to put in a few vol reducers plus this upgrade. I think I’ll love it.
did this spring make the yari softer?
No. Air pressure makes it softer
@@RydenDirty Sorry, due to machine translation, I can’t understand the essence of the answer))) I’ll try again. The Yari fork is 160mm, the minimum pressure I can do is 45psi, but it is still stiff for my child. If I put this stem that you have on the video, will it help me make the fork even softer for the child?! I understand that the update has more negative camera, which allows you to add softness ...
@@RydenDirty I just read that the 2021 update of the stock, on the pike forks, gave a bad result and people put the stock back.
Did you use new crush washers or use the old ones?
Came with a new one
@@RydenDirty sweet! Good to know. Just ordered the Rc2 and the Updated air kit and was worried I have to buy my own crush washers
@@jongom9328 nice. I was looking for another one but couldn't find one
@@RydenDirty On the air side, did you add 3ml to the top side? Looking at the manual it says use rockshox grease and 3ml oil???
Year model on your yari?
it was a 2020 model. not sure about the rest
Hello Ryden Dirty, i didnt hear you mention the mm of travel in the Charger RC2 damper. Did you buy a 160mm or 170mm? I want to upgrade from 170mm to 180mm. I wonder if i should buy both the Charger damper and the Debonair air shaft at 180mm. I think that makes sense. What do you think?
I went with the 170mm air spring. I was coming from a 160mm. I'm not sure there is a charger mm. I believe they are all the same. But I could be wrong
@@RydenDirty hey, thanks for getting back to me. I get the air shaft at 180mm and if the rc2 for the yari only comes in one size. Then, i guess that is the way it is. I will check the SRAM site against the serial number of my work. Thanks a bunch.
100 psi is too much . i've put on mine 60 psi for 85 kg weight and my sag is 30 %
I run my fork stuff for jumping
400 bucks worth of material and dude's having a lifetime experience servicing forks, yeah i understand why average joes are getting the fox factory team fork right away
I hear ya
im cool
cool
