worried about my revalve

[JWW]

Let me start off by saying I haven't ridden the bike yet. I have only pushed the forks up and down while standing next to the bike.

I had new springs and a revalve done this week. Now when I push down on the forks they feel bubbly. Almost like they are sticking. It happens between full extension and 1/3 of the way through the travel.

I dont remember if it did the same when the bike was new. Will the feeling go away after a break in ride or does this sound like a problem?

Thanks

Jeff

Jeff: Have you tried realigning the front wheel, maybe the forks arnt lined up properly and are binding.

I retorqued the forks but actually forgot about reseting the wheel. I will try that tonight. I also called the vendor and he said it could be because the forks were laying flat and that they could still be bleeding themselves.

Thanks

The vendor would be correct. Wait until after you ride it next time and see how it is then.
