Hi, my Ohlins remote adjuster is fine for first 3 or 4 clicks of preload, then not a lot happens. Think there must be air in the line that needs bleeding out.
I've found some advice on google about bleeding it, but there are 2 screws on the adjuster body, 1 which is for bleeding and 1 which doesn't want to be undone, as it secures part of the preload mechanism? Not wanting to bugger things up, I'm hoping someone out there can point me in the right direction on how to sort this out.
Thanks in advance

I've had a few Ohlins shocks rebuilt on offroad bikes as far as i know the shock is oil filled and the remote bottle is nitrogen filled so i would assume if it's not doing very much you've a seal gone.

Speak to these people they are Ohlins specialists ans will advise you better than anyone on here will. They also do very good custom setups and rebuilds for not much money
