Rockshox Mag 20 and 21 Air Valve Caps

Well, I finally solved my problem. I've figured out how to rebuild the seal on Rockshox Mag air valve caps. I invested a little bit of time and funds experimenting with various materials, so I thought I'd provide this service to recoup my costs.

Anywho, here is a link to the service http://rockshoxmagaircaprebuild.blogspot.com/

The price is free return shipping for ConUSA. I've yet to determine how much it costs to ship across the pond. I'll be taking paypal shortly, if there is any interest.

I'm posting here not so much as to attract business from RB, but more so for cross linking. Google needs that :)

You can also send me a pm.

Regards to all.
 
that's great!! I have a Specialized FS fork that is supposed to have a Mag 20 topcap. Can you do these too?

Ive heard that they are the same, but have never held one myself.

If you like, send them over and I'll rebuild them. If it works, then we can discuss payment. I'll give you an RB discount. The rebuild with not damage the unit. But the original seal will be toast when its removed.
 
sounds good. one of the seals is leeking anyway, so you can do that one first. Would like to know the costs before I send you the top caps though, as I am not using the fork at the moment. If you could send me a PM when you know a price including return shipping to the Netherlands? No hurry there mate, as I mentioned, the fork is not being used...
 
The link above says 35 bucks for a pair.

I'll give you an intro price of 10 bucks per top cap.

Whats involved is cleaning, checking the orings, lubing, pressing in the seal and doing a quality check to make sure the seal is good.

USPS says shipping to Holland will be 8 USD for the return for 8 oz (approx).

As you can tell, its not a big money maker.

Lemeknow. I take paypal. Ive got great eBay reviews too. Check me out, I just put up an auction for this service.
 
price sounds very good mate! I'll pic up the fork this week (it's in a storage at a friends house), take of the caps and let you know when they are ready for postage!
cheers

Just a reminder, depressurize the fork before removing the top caps.

I know you know better, but it doesnt hurt to be safe :)
 
Still going. Ive rebuilt air caps for a few members now. If anybody needs it, hit me up.

Standard rate for those that find me through forums now is $ 30.00. Free shipping in ConUSA, plus shipping worldwide. Customs forms take time to fill out :)

Why not just flog them the replacement valve instead, would be cheaper all round.
They're not exactly hard to fit and put a medium thickness pin through.
