4.1 Steerer Tube Preparation

Measure and cut the steerer tube to the correct length for your bicycle frame and stem. Install the star-nut into the steerer tube using a star-nut setting tool. Ensure the star-nut is inserted straight and to the correct depth.

4.2 Crown Race Installation

Install the crown race onto the steerer tube. This typically requires a crown race setting tool to ensure it is seated firmly against the fork crown.

4.3 Fork Installation into Frame

Insert the steerer tube through the head tube of your bicycle frame. Install the headset bearings, spacers, and stem. Secure the stem bolts according to the stem manufacturer's torque specifications.

4.6 Air Spring Setup

The Recon Silver RL D1 features an air spring. Proper air pressure is crucial for optimal performance. Refer to the air pressure guide on the fork leg or the RockShox Trailhead App for recommended settings based on rider weight. Use a high-pressure shock pump to adjust the air pressure. Set sag to 15-25% of total travel for trail riding.

4.7 Regulacja odbicia

The rebound knob (typically red, located at the bottom of the right fork leg) controls the speed at which the fork extends after compression. Turn the knob towards the 'rabbit' symbol for faster rebound and towards the 'turtle' symbol for slower rebound. Adjust to prevent packing up or bucking.

4.8 Compression Adjustment (Motion Control RL)

The Motion Control RL damper features low-speed compression adjustment to lockout. The blue knob on the top of the right fork leg allows you to adjust compression damping. Turn clockwise to increase compression damping and eventually lock out the fork for climbing or smooth terrain. Turn counter-clockwise to decrease compression damping for active suspension on rough terrain.

5. Instrukcja obsługi

Once installed and set up, your Recon Silver RL D1 fork is ready for use. Adjust the compression damping based on your riding conditions:

• Tryb otwarty: For maximum small bump compliance and traction on technical trails.
• Tryb blokady: For efficient climbing or riding on smooth surfaces, minimizing suspension movement.

Fine-tune rebound damping to match your riding style and terrain. A good starting point is to set rebound so the fork returns quickly but without feeling uncontrolled or 'pogo-sticking'.

6. Konserwacja

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your RockShox Recon Silver RL D1 fork.

6.1 Czyszczenie

After each ride, clean the exterior of the fork with mild soap and water. Wipe down the stanchions (upper tubes) and seals to remove dirt and debris. Avoid high-pressure washers directly on seals.

6.2 Lower Leg Service
