I've watched a bunch of videos on YouTube and I'm doing it the same way that they are but no matter how many times I try it has the same result. Any ideas on what's going on?
Thanks
This is normal. Once you stroke the shocks a few times they should suck in a little air and balance themselves. This extra air is required for an emulsion style shock. Until is sucks a little air it will have "reverse rebound" there will be a vacuum in the shock until it balances.
