Pretty outdated geometry. 65.5* head angle iirc. You'd be better off getting something newer with a 64* or less head angle and lower bb.

I wouldn't put that in your 40. It won't mess anything up but your fork won't preform as well.

It doesn't hurt. Lower weight oil will give better small bump and blow though the travel faster and it will increase how fast it rebounds, compared to a heavier weight with the same amount of oil. And if it's just what you're putting in you lowers, it won't make a difference to performance, but it's better to use the recommended weight for lubrication.

Hey everyone could someone please shed a little light as to what may be causing my headset to keep coming loose? This is the third time now that it's come loose and im growing more concerned each time. It's an fsa orbit 1.5 zero stack headset on a '15 Wilson 27.5. Is this common for it to loosen over time, could there be something else contributing to this or could it be a low quality headset? A buddy suggested locktite but first Id like to see what some other thoughts/opinions are and any info will be much appreciated! Thanks guys
