I need help figuring this one out....So Im on a 2011 Fox40 and Ive tried 3 different fork oil to rebuild the cartridge .Overall the fork is smooth, rebound works like a charm but the compression just isnt there , the fork dives a lot and if very soft.I did rebuild it once a few months ago with the proper Fox 10 wt RED fork oil and it was just as good as new but didnt have the red stuff this time.
Ive tried Maxima 10 wt, Fox SUSPENSION fluid 7.0wt(maybe a bit closer to how it should feel ?) and the FOX green 10wt as well (seems to be the softest)
Before I go and buy some red Fox oil I'd still like to know if it could be something else , something I may be able to fix myself or would it need to be repair by a pro...Dont see what or how it could be broken but its certainly not performing the way it should.
Im sure the viscosity of oil can have an affect on the compression but could it be THAT noticeable
