Title: landing gear
Post by: DR VINOAH on March 19, 2007, 03:08 PM

im sure we all know about landing gear forks

im about to let you all in on  a little known fact
that will take only 5mins of your time
and maybe save you years of unradness

you must keep up your oil/pnuematic pressure
as pic below,i have neglected to keep mine top up
naughty naughty
(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/f278/vin501/landinggear1.jpg)

recommeded pressure per lbs is 100 per square inch
to replace your oil, use the two holes ,found at bottom of fork blade
the recommened oil is called vadgejuice,but 3 in 1 will suffice

oakley doakley

ive just been running your Q,s past my resident tech

his name is knarley charley

the hydro properties of vadgejuice are very hard to work out
but go somthing like this ,1 in the hand is like 2 up the bracket
or as phil said 2 muffs per sq inch

the vandal rich is talking bout is an AIR vandal

as for the likkle lites LG.s
50% free is aquired by simply sieving the VC

i thank knarley charley on behalf of all of us, for his tiptop tip,s
