Well my early first production run Reverb has finally shit the bed.
Was setting up my son's bike for his first ride of the year and it felt a bit spongy.
Did a bleed, well tried to....fluid would push easily one way but not the other.
Buttoned it up and no change, post operates just fine, but has about an inch of squish when you put a bit of weight on it. Was perfectly fine when it was hung on the wall for the winter.

Rebuild time; I guess I now have to pay attention to what their issues are.

Rode with my boys this morning, then rode a buddy this afternoon. Bagged.
Try him now?

I have a 125mm reverb I could give to you for a beer....

Hmm. So flat tire was with old tire and tube, yet after swapping on new tire and fresh sealant, it went flat again. WTF.
