What actually controls the speed of rebound in a RockShox Mag 21 fork?
I have these Specialized Future Shocks (basically a Mag 21 I believe), and the rebound is pretty violent, so I’m wondering how I can slow it down.
They seem to take and hold pressure, and the adjuster knobs are effective for compression, but the return rate to top out is too quick.
Whilst in good condition, they are no doubt long overdue a service, which is something I’ve never done before, but I’m sure I can follow the manuals easily enough - if I can get all the services items from somewhere?!?
