How much oil volume in this shock?
I have a vintage Specialized Rockhopper with a Specialized Future FS shock. It is soft. So I took it apart to rebuild it. I'm not sure what the correct oil volume is to refill it with? Do you know? Thank you. Photo is a sample of the fork. Not my photo.

It's a rebadged RS Mag fork so maybe look for a manual online? If I were to guess I'd start with like 5 ml and adjusted as needed.
It's an air/oil fork so maybe all that's needed is a pump up?

Search: rock shox Mag fork rebuild specifications
i use bing.. not sure what will come back via google or whatnot..
MagService.pdf came up... it's a rock shox service manual that includes all the early Magnesium forks...
SpecialtyRetroProducts.com has a lot of old fork kits available, and may offer specific info too... :-)
good luck.

I already took it apart. There was no oil in one side. Not sure the other side was full.
