Fixing a leaking Zero XU 2012 rear shock
« on: April 28, 2019, 11:12:05 PM »

The rear shock looks oily, and the rebound is much much softer.
Anybody knows how I can fix this for a reasonable price ? Any possibility to refill the rear shock ?

Who makes the shock?  Are their any distinguishing marks or names called out on it you could contact for a quote?

Quite possibly Fox makes that shock, and they may be able to rebuild it.  Worth looking into.

I found it for 200 dollars on af1 racing.
It is mad by fastace. My options  are either to keep it like it is by strengthening the spring, changing it with an adaptable, a fastace or fixing the shock.

I might chose the first option - i am.using the bike mainly in the city...
