    Restoration of a Rock Shox Mag 21 Sl Ti including color

    Bushings seem fine, circlip in place, metal adjuster rod. I will tune the damping like I did in 94 👍

    Restoration of a Rock Shox Mag 21 Sl Ti including color

    I also found a crack in the original Magnesium brake arch underneath the paint while stripping the paint. So I had to find another one. I thought a AC would be a nice addition to the AC crown. But for know I only found a NOS Brodie one. I might think about the AC whenever I find one.

    Restoration of a Rock Shox Mag 21 Sl Ti including color

    Btw. I wanted to get the exact fork setup as I raced in 94. Back then I used a turquise AC fork crown on my Sl21 ti fork on a Mountain Cycle San Andreas. So it had to be a AC crown again. Some will argue that a original setup should be prefered for such a restoration, but I just want to rebuild...

    Restoration of a Rock Shox Mag 21 Sl Ti including color

    After a lot of off and online research I found a specialiced company that will coat them with the honey coating. They call it clear gold. They use the exact process to supply painted parts for high priced de Sede furnitures. So they know exactly what they do. I will be able to pick up the parts...

    Restoration of a Rock Shox Mag 21 Sl Ti including color

    I have found a very nice company that has leached off the paint and then polished the legs back to a mirror gloss. Today I was able to pick up the legs and I must say these now look sher good again.

    Restoration of a Rock Shox Mag 21 Sl Ti including color

    I had a rather hard time to find a way to restore the original gold mirror finish. So I tried to get some knowledge how Rock Shox did it 1994. Back then the Magnesium legs were mirror polished and afterwards coated with a clearcoat that got a little bit of color added. So they had a honey look...

    It also took some time to find a internal service kit. Oil seals are still available from Enduro but NOS wipers are rather hard to find. ebay is your friend sometimes for them as well. SRP still sells the air seals. I will order some from them.

    Restoration of a Rock Shox Mag 21 Sl Ti including color

    I wanted a long travel kit to extend the travel from 46 to 60mm, just like I rode myself in 94.I found one online, but you can also shorten the original top out sleves to created your own LT set. If you are going to shorten them, then use precise machining to do so. The original full kit also...

    Restoration of a Rock Shox Mag 21 Sl Ti including color

    First step was to strip the fork down. The Mag21 tools are very rare these days (let me know if you got a set to buy ;)) I had to find anothert way to separate the upper and lower tubes without the official seal puller. The main steps are well documented but without the seal puller the only way...
