Hi
I pumped the negative chamber up to 80psi last night, and it went down to 30psi overnight without riding. when i ride it goes down to 10psi.
Any thoughts?
How much time do GIANT give warranty on forks? (XTC 1 2009)
Cheers

they are unopened and have less than 45hours riding, i'm the original owner.
Check its not just air leaking from the valve .Add air and submerge in bucket of water you will soon see.If so valve core can be replaced.
thanks karlos, good idea.
i think i might use this issue with leaking air to get it checked properly if it doesn't cost me anything. something is wrong and il let them pay for it
to be honest i wish there was some serious thing ****ed up so i could get a new fork
What Karlos said... the first thing you should do when you think you have a leak is pump them up and completely submerge in a bucket of water... it's the only way to see exactly where the leak is coming from.. leave them there for a while.. if its a small leak the bubbles will form very slowly so you will need to keep an eye on it..
Hopefully its just a valve.. which is very easy to fix..
Make sure the top cap is tight..
Also make sure there is oil on the upper (positive) chamber of the air spring.. this helps help seal air between the positive and negative cambers..
thanks.if it was a leak between chambers i should notice more air in the top one, am i right?
