Pike Service Manual

Charger Cartridge Oil:

"Pour RockShox 3wt suspension fluid into the cartridge tube until it is approximately half full."

"Fill the bleed syringe half full with 3wt suspension fluid and thread the syringe into the compression top cap assembly. Use a 15 mm cone wrench to turn the compression cam assembly counter-clockwise to the open position."

"Hold the rebound shaft in place and pull up on the syringe handle to create a vacuum in the bladder.
Slowly push up and pull down on the rebound shaft multiple times to purge bubbles from the damper assembly.
Push down on the syringe handle and push up on the rebound shaft simultaneously to force bubbles out of the damper assembly. This will cause the bladder to expand and contract. This is normal. Repeat step 18 until only very small bubbles emerge from the bladder assembly"

And for lubrication:

"Position the fork at a slight angle with the bottom bolt holes oriented upward. Angle the syringe fitting in each lower leg bolt hole so as not to fill the shaft. Inject 5 mL of RockShox 0w-30 suspension fluid into the drive side leg, and 15 mL of RockShox 0w-30 suspension fluid into the non-drive side leg.

Notice
Do not exceed the recommended fluid volume per leg as this can damage the fork."

Non Drive Side 15ml
Drive Side 5ml
