1. The fork on your bicycle is designed for use by a single rider, on mountain  
trails, and similar off-road conditions.  
2. Before riding the bicycle, be sure the brakes are properly installed and  
adjusted. If the brakes do not work properly, the rider could suffer serious  
and/or fatal injuries.  
3. Your fork may fail in certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, any  
condition that causes a loss of oil; collision or other activity bending or  
breaking the fork's components or parts; and extended periods of non-use.  
Fork failure may not be visible. Do not ride the bicycle if you notice bent or  
broken fork parts, loss of oil, sounds of excessive topping out, or other  
indications of a possible fork failure, such as loss of shock absorbing  
properties. Instead, take your bike to a qualified dealer for inspection and  
repair. In the event of a fork failure, damage to the bicycle or personal  
injury may result.  
3. Always use genuine RockShox parts. Use of aftermarket replacement parts  
voids the warranty and could cause structural failure to the shock.  
Structural failure could result in loss of control of the bicycle with possible  
serious and/or fatal injuries.  
4. Use extreme caution not to tilt the bicycle to either side when mounting the  
bicycle to a carrier by the fork drop-outs (front wheel removed). The fork  
legs may suffer structural damage if the bicycle is tilted while the drop-outs  
are in the carrier. Make sure the fork is securely fastened down with a  
quick release. Make sure the rear wheel is fastened down when using  
ANY bike carrier that secures the fork’s drop-outs. Not securing the rear  
can allow the bike’s mass to side-load the drop-outs, causing them to  
break or crack. If the bicycle tilts or falls out of its carrier, do not ride the  
bicycle until the fork is properly examined for possible damage. Return the  
fork to your dealer for inspection or call RockShox if there is any question  
of possible damage (See the International Distributor List). A fork leg or  
drop-out failure could result in loss of control of the bicycle with possible  
serious and/or fatal injuries.  
5. Only mount cantilever-type brakes to the existing brake posts. Forks with  
hangerless style braces are only designed for ‘V’- style or hydraulic  
cantilever brakes. Do not use any cantilever brake other than those  
intended by the brake manufacturer to work with a hangerless brace. Do  
not route the front brake cable and/or cable housing through the stem or  
any other mounts or cable stops. Do not use a front brake cable leverage  
device mounted to the brace.  
6. Observe all owner's manual instructions for care and service of this product.  
ROCKSHOX FORKS ARE DESIGNED FOR COMPETITIVE OFF-ROAD  
RIDING AND DO NOT COME WITH THE PROPER REFLECTORS FOR ON-  
ROAD USE.YOUR DEALER SHOULD INSTALL PROPER REFLECTORS TO  
MEET THE CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION’S (CPSC)  
REQUIREMENTS FOR BICYCLE STANDARDS IF THE FORK IS GOING TO  
BE USED ON PUBLIC ROADS AT ANY TIME.

It is extremely important that your RockShox fork is installed correctly by a qualified bicycle  
mechanicꢀ Improperly installed forks are extremely dangerous and can result in severe and/or  
fatal injuriesꢀ  
1. Remove the existing fork from the bicycle and the crown race from the fork. Measure the length of the fork steerer  
tube against the length of the RockShox steerer tube. The RockShox steerer tube may need cutting to the proper  
length. Make sure there is sufficient length to clamp the stem (refer to the stem manufacturer's instructions).  
!
W A R N I N G  
DO NOT ADD THREADS TO ROCKSHOX THREADLESS STEERERS. THE STEERER  
TUBE CROWN ASSEMBLY IS A ONE-TIME PRESS FIT. REPLACEMENT OF THE  
ASSEMBLY MUST BE DONE TO CHANGE THE LENGTH, DIAMETER OR HEADSET  
TYPE (THREADED OR THREADLESS).  
DO NOT REMOVE OR REPLACE THE STEERER TUBE. THIS COULD RESULT IN  
THE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE BICYCLE WITH POSSIBLE SERIOUS AND/OR  
FATAL INJURIES.  
2. Install the headset crown race (29.9mm for 1 1/8" steerers) firmly against the top of the fork crown. Install the fork  
assembly on the bike. Adjust the headset until you feel no play or drag.  
3. Install the brakes according to the manufacturer's instructions and adjust brake pads properly. Use the fork only with  
V-type or hydraulic cantilever brakes mounted to the existing brake posts or disc style brakes mounted through the  
provided mounting holes. Do not use any cantilever brake other than those intended by the brake manufacturer to  
work with a hangerless brace.  
4. Adjust the front wheel quick release to clear the dropout's counter bore. The quick release nut must be tightened  
after the wheel is properly seated into the dropout's counter bore. Make sure four or more threads are engaged in  
the quick release nut when it is closed. Orient the quick release lever in front of and parallel to the lower tube in the  
locked position.  
5. Keep in mind tire clearance as you choose tires. Maximum size is 2.4" wide or 348 mm radius installed. Be sure to  
check this radius whenever you change tires. To do this, remove the top caps and spring stack assemblies and compress  
the fork completely to make sure at least 5 mm of clearance exists between the top of the tire and the bottom of the  
crown. Exceeding maximum tire size will cause the tire to jam against the crown when the fork is fully compressed.

RockShox Judy forks can be tuned for your particular weight, riding style, and terrainꢀ  
Setting Sag  
Judy forks are designed to sag when you are sitting on your bikeꢀ Sag is the compression of the fork  
caused by the rider's weightꢀ Proper sag allows the front wheel to follow the contour of the terrain  
as you rideꢀ Sag is adjusted by the amount of air you add to the fork (less air equals more sag)ꢀ

To measure sag, install a zip tie on the upper tube of the fork flush against the wiper sealꢀ Sit on  
the bike with normal riding apparelꢀ Step off the bike, and measure the distance between the  
wiper seal and the zip tieꢀ This is your sagꢀ

ADDING AIR PRESSURE  
Remove the air cap to expose the air valveꢀ Using a football needle (provided with your fork) and  
a bike pump, add the recommend air pressure (see Air Pressure Guidelines")ꢀ Remove the football  
needle and re-install the air capꢀ  
NOTE: MAXIMUM AIR PRESSURE IS 50 PSIꢀ  
External Rebound Adjustment (SL only)  
Damping controls the speed the fork moves after hitting a bump (or how quickly the fork returns  
to full travel)ꢀ You want the fork to absorb the bump impact and then return to full travel before  
you encounter the next bumpꢀ Test the damping by standing next to the bike and putting both  
hands on the handlebarꢀ Pull the front brake and quickly push on the fork, and then lift the front  
wheel before the fork fully extendsꢀ You should feel how hard the fork extends as you lift the  
front wheelꢀ If the fork extends too fast, the wheel and handlebar will shake in your hands (you  
need more damping)ꢀ If the fork extends like an elevator (slow), there is too much dampingꢀ  
To change the rebound damping on your fork, locate the adjuster knob on the lower right legꢀ A  
clockwise adjustment will increase the rebound damping; a counterclockwise adjustment will  
decrease the rebound dampingꢀ More damping means slower fork speedꢀ The knob offers 90 degrees  
of adjustmentꢀ Do not turn the rebound adjuster past its stop limitsꢀ Small changes in knob position  
will make large changes on the trailꢀ Start in the middle, and increase or decrease as necessaryꢀ  
Oil Tuning  
Changing the HydraCoil oil in your Judy fork will alter its rebound characteristicsꢀ Rebound is  
the extension or return of your forkꢀ To slow the rebound of your fork, replace the stock 5 wtꢀ oil  
in your fork with a heavier weight oil (10 or 15 wtꢀ)ꢀ For further information on oil volumes and  
adding oil to your fork, visit our website at wwwꢀrockshoxꢀcom or contact your RockShox local  
dealer or distributorꢀ  
Changing Travel  
To change the travel of your fork from 80 to 100 mm or from 100 to 80 mm you must perform a  
full service on your forkꢀ To obtain service information or instructions, visit our website at  
wwwꢀrockshoxꢀcom or contact your local RockShox dealer or distributorꢀ  
MA I N T E N A N C E  
To maintain the high performance, safety, and long life of your fork, periodic maintenance is  
requiredꢀ If you ride in extreme conditions, maintenance should be performed more frequentlyꢀ  
Recommended intervals for maintenance are listed belowꢀ  
Before Every Ride  
Check the other components on your bicycle in accordance with the manuals supplied by the  
manufacturer to make sure they are in working orderꢀ  
After Every Ride  
Clean and dry the exterior of your forkꢀ Avoid directing water pressure at the upper tube/wiper  
seal junctionꢀ  
Every 25 Hours of Riding  
Lift boots from lower legs. Wipe exterior surfaces, including upper tubes. Apply 2-3 drops of Teflon-based oil to the  
upper tube/lower tube junction. Refit boots.
