New SR Suntour Durolux EQ Fork Installed // It's easy to install yourself

[@allanridesbikes5856]

I love dead simple easy it is to service and adjust SR Suntour forks.

[@ToogyHowser]

Yeah they are so easy to work on!

[@wallyedmonds8199]

This is what I like about your vids forget things all good go back do it just like most of us 😄

[@ToogyHowser]

Just trying to keep it real lol

[@patchesthejaybird8431]

I loved that star fangled nut seater, I saw it on one of your previous fork install videos. What a slick tool, it saves you from having a star mangled nut in your fork.

[@ns671fr]

Your suntour forks are sweet

[@matt_m126]

Suntour forks are actually what got me to watch your channel initially, only to learn that we are somewhat in the same area (I am in Southwestern Qc), so getting ideas on where to ride as well from your channel. I have been enjoying my Aion forks for a while now.

[@ToogyHowser]

Great to hear that!

[@916timmmay]

Great looking fork and a great video!

[@ToogyHowser]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@yellowtwin705s3]

O man bruh those forks look amazing on the bike as well as the bars 💯🤘🤟

[@magruderable]

Excited to hear what you think of this badboy. Great video

[@ToogyHowser]

It feels great so far in the limited riding I did on it

[@johnnydoe66]

If you slide the fork the other way in your cutting guide and line up the mark with the outside edge, your cut would be right. The slot for the hacksaw would be the thickness of that outer plate from your mark. Plus sharpen your pencil to a finer point to get closer to the spacer

[@josereneducharme142]

Dang! I just learned something. That makes it a productive day.

[@ToogyHowser]

Thanks for the tip!

[@bonifacioivcomilang1038]

Hi good evening could you demo have set up the low and high speed compression with the rebound. It would be a great to see how you set up your fork. Thank you

[@gunshipanropace2gunshipand119]

Best fork for your money , its my dream fork but in black

[@josephladines]

New subscriber here! Love your contents! Are you from Canada? Changed my santa cruz hightower fork and shocks to suntour triair and durolux! Super flushed and loved the adjustability and maintenance of the product. I know, i know suntour in a santa cruz is odd but hey, its my bike and i do whatever i want! Regards from Oakville, Ontario.

[@ToogyHowser]

Thanks man! yeah SR Suntour gets kind of a bad rep based on their lower end forks, but their higher end stuff is great, and they are an amazing company to deal with.

[@waldowsxxghostxx8577]

How does this fork compare to rock shox lyrik in terms of reliability and performance?

[@jonathanwilliams5976]

Looking forward to seeing how it performs.

[@ToogyHowser]

From what little riding I did with it, it does feel great!

[@ryanlaporte8224]

I seen when you marked it there was a gap at the bottom the first time lol

[@andymtb5714]

Yeah I was thinking the same thing haha

[@ToogyHowser]

Yeah I noticed that when editing lol

[@andymtb5714]

@@ToogyHowser well it turned out and worked!

Hello. I have duro eq 27.5 the travel is not comming back when i sit on it

[@gabsantiago7676]

Can you adjust the travel of the Durolux EQ?

[@marlonmugot4069]

Hello sir. I'm planning to buy durolux eq on my hardtail,How to reduce travel on durolux eq? And what it lowest travel on durolux eq?

[@CRGT666]

Can you make a video about how to service the SR Suntour Unair rear shock? I can't find any on youtube

[@ToogyHowser]

I would love to, but I don't have that shock lol, I might do one on servicing the SR Suntour Triair, might be similar.

[@dimanio9177]

Im very interested in lowering suntour durolux 36 to 100 or 120 mm travel like Tom Isted is runnin on his slopestyle bike but i cant find the air spring smaller than 150 mm my question is can i physically find an air spring for suntour lower than 150 ?

[@EmyllSomar]

I was having an anxiety attack looking at the gap you missed before that first cut then I cried when I saw the second cut's angle... :)

[@matheomugot8265]

How to adjust travel on sr suntor EQ model?

[@ToogyHowser]

unfortunately the EQ version is not as easy to adjust, you need a new airshaft.

[@simplyaverage6025]

Hi, on the new durolux you have to change the air shaft to adjuste the travel, or is there a spacer sytem?

[@ToogyHowser]

yes you do need to change the air shaft to change the travel. Certainly not as easy as the older durolux, but based on the few rides I've had this new EQ version is SO much better.

[@simplyaverage6025]

@@ToogyHowser okay thanks for the response.

[@kennethvillaver2948]

Good day! I'm planning to get a sr suntour durolux r2c2. Is this fork adjustable internally, like the previous models? Thanks!

[@ToogyHowser]

as long as it's not the EQ version, it's adjustable.

[@swiszdelafuente6555]

Which is better for enduro r2c2 or EQ?

[@ToogyHowser]

EQ for sure

[@jf8534]

Kept thinking where is the star nut. I'm guessing this was pre broken collarbone.

[@ToogyHowser]

Yes it was lol

[@Pogidati44]

How was duro EQ after months of use?

[@ToogyHowser]

honestly haven't had a real chance to try it out much, broke my collarbone shortly after this video and it's been a long road to recovery! Hopefully this year I will get to try it out fully!

[@waldowsxxghostxx8577]

Does this for have through axle or quick release?

[@ToogyHowser]

15x110 boost thru axle

[@waldowsxxghostxx8577]

@@ToogyHowser with a QR Lever is their a way to swap out with a pure TA bolt that is 15x110 or are different brands of air forks use proprietary bolts?

[@dylanreisky1004]

Are you going to race at horseshoe this year?

[@ToogyHowser]

I was planning on it, gotta see how the collarbone heals!

[@nostr8ghtlinzs596]

If you want to vid on swapping a kids bike from spring to air let me know...... hahah. They, suntour, have reasonably priced forks for kids but they are all sold out!

[@ToogyHowser]

It’s tough getting any bike parts right now!

[@nostr8ghtlinzs596]

@@ToogyHowser so true :( ☹

[@patrick1978maas]

So is your old Durolux making a sound like a GI Joe laser gun from the cartoons? Because thats how my Auron sounds like. Fiew/fiew/fiew, it's noisy as fr@ck. Btw: Great thinking with the pvc pipe. It just never accorded to me :)

[@ToogyHowser]

yeah sort of, it's more of a chirp sound, but only when the rebound is turned up

[@patrick1978maas]

@@ToogyHowser A Chirp is nice. Mine does sound like a lasergun going downhill ;) no need to ring a bell though. By the way, can you tell me how you've set up the Durolux? There is one coming in here in the next couple of weeks for testing etc. It will be mounted on a Canyon Stoic hardtail.

[@Dima-dc5mf]

Bought Lyrik recently on a sale and it's much better than a Suntour AION. Suntour is good for money anyway. But RockShox is better as it is)

[@andresmtb9284]

How would u compare the AION TO THE ROCKSHOX RECON RL

[@Dima-dc5mf]

@@andresmtb9284 Don't know really, since I didn't ride on Recon RL. I think AION is better on paper considering specs. That's all I can say
