This is the best video ever. No BS blablabla, just shows how to do..THANK YOU!

[@doctorTF_2]

Help, I can't manage to screw out the allen under the fork without the smaller spring inside the forks rotating with it.. I tried lodging a screwdriver in to hold it in place, but to no avail.. The whole assembly on the bottom is just rotating with it (I guess it's because of the sticky threads)

1000x Dank !!! Endlich ein Video, das den kompletten Dämpferaufbau zeigt. Super erklärt.

[@kevinhoward9593]

my front fork is mangled and needs repairing or replacing.

[@gorcrx]

Hi. How much oil will be add? What quantity? And what size is the oil seal. Thanks in advance

[@Cyclepedia]

This will depend on the model of scooter. The old seal should have markings on it that say what size it is and if the oil has not leaked out of the fork you can measure how much you drain out and put that same amount back in.

@user-zu9kq3iu5r Hard to say without looking at it. In a situation like this I would say contact us so you can send pics. www.cyclepedia.com/

@@Cyclepedia Thanks

[@Cyclepedia]

@user-zu9kq3iu5r In this case you need a repair manual. We should have the manual for your model on our website. If you sign up for a repair manual it includes tech support. www.cyclepedia.com/

Where can I find the kit to rebuild my 2013 50cc tao tao forks?? And what fork oil is recommended ?? Thanks for any help

[@Cyclepedia]

I'm not sure about tao tao repair information but most scooter forks use 10w fork oil.

[@jaysinclair5114]

My new seals are way to tight to even fit in that easy? What can I do? I been smacking it for ages with a driver and they barely budge

[@nthecut1tech21]

Use zip tie around it to compress

[@lenliz2003]

How much oil do you use?

Hi. how many newtons do you tighten the lower bolt?

[@orfeas92]

Did you use the same copper washer in 04:20? Can i use it again without issues? Thank you!

[@Cyclepedia]

Technically you should use a new washer, I reused the one in the video since it was just a demonstration.

[@erikgaler2778]

On muy fork the spring is upside down, the coils closer together at the top. Does it matter?. It is exactly yours.

[@keeaan6895]

I think it doesn’t matter. Just known as an “USD fork”
