What is the basic set up ?
Your shock has been set up for your bike, with a specific internal valving. You can find in the « Stoy chart » in the
download section of our website, all the infos about standard settings for each bike.
Where can I purchase original stickers and valve cap ?
You can purchase these items through your approved BOS center, or on bosmtb.com website.
I noticed some play between the shock and the frame, what can I do ?
The rear shock mounting hardwares must be replaced. Contact an approved BOS center, or connect on
bosmtb.com.
IMPORTANT
Never attempt to alter the pressure in the shock’s reservoir.
It never needs to be changed and the gas only acts to pressurize the hydraulic fluid in order to avoid cavitation.
Attempting to modify the reservoir pressure will only result in shock failure.
3. MAINTENANCE
The oil service and full service must be performed by a BOS approved center. The BOS approved centers are
the only able to identify and appraise a damaged or worn part especially in case of shock or wear on structural
elements such as the legs, the stanchions and the crowns.
