INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing your new White Brothers fork. Our forks are designed to help you perform at your absolute peak. Your new White Brothers fork has oil damping and is air sprung for light weight performance. The air spring and damper is set stock to satisfy a wide range of rider weights and riding styles. Fine tuning can be easily accomplished by changing air pressure of the air spring. See the adjustment and maintenance section for rider weight verses air pressures settings. For very heavy or very light riders the external damper can be adjusted to give a wide range of compression and rebound damping. Steering accuracy is improved over conventional MTB forks by utilizing superior materials and design. These include oversized 32mm fork tubes, a torsion box design steering crown with pressed in tubes, a one piece billet brake arch and extra thick drop-outs. The WB forks bootless design allows a considerable amount more slider/stanchion overlap than competitor forks which increases the fork steering accuracy. Fork travel has been chosen to offer the best performance possible for each fork’s intended use. To ensure peak performance, proper installation and periodic maintenance is required. When riding on public land, please respect the rights of others and stay on established paths and trails. By riding responsibly, you are helping ensure the future of our sport.

FORK INSTALLATION
White Brothers forks feature a 1-1/8” threadless steer tube. If you have a threaded type fork on your bicycle, consult your dealer for the appropriate upgrade parts necessary to convert to a 1-1/8” threadless steer tube.
1. Remove your old fork from the bicycle. Measure the diameter and length of your old forks steerer tube to ensure that the White Brothers steerer tube is the correct diameter and sufficient length for the installation.
2. Remove the crown race from your old fork.
3. Press the crown race onto your new White Brothers fork.(see Figure #1)
4. Preassemble the headset by sliding the fork steerer tube through the bearings. Then install the headset upper race,
headset spacer (optional), and stem onto the fork steerer tube. Adjust with optional spacers to your preferred height. (See Figure #2) Refer to the head set owner’s manual if there are any questions about the pre-assembly.
5. Mark the steerer tube at the top of the stem. The steerer tube will now need to be cut to the correct length.
Disassemble and cut 3mm (1/8”) below the mark. Consult your dealer or mechanic if you don’t have the proper tools to cut the steer tube.
6. The star fangled nut must now be installed into the steer tube. If you don’t have the set tool, we recommend dealer
installation of this part. (See Figure #3)
7. Clean and grease all headset bearings and races to prepare them for assembly. Note: Replace the bearings if there
is any sign of wear or corrosion.
8. Now loosely assemble the headset, stem and handle bars as done in step four.
9. Install the headset top cap into the star fangled nut. Tighten until there is no play in the steering. The fork should
rotate freely in the head tube. Straighten the stem in relation to the front tire and tighten the pinch bolts on the stem. If there are any questions consult your dealer or mechanic.
10. Install your front brake and adjust according to the manufacture’s instructions.
11. Adjust the quick release on the hub to clear the secondary catches on the drop-outs. Tighten the quick release after
the axle is properly seated in the drop-out. Ensure that there is sufficient thread engagement (5 or more threads with the quick release in the lock position) due to the thicker White Brothers drop-outs. Install the front wheel per manufactures specifications.
12. Check to see that the brakes are adjusted and properly working. Make sure that the brake cable does not interfere with any part of the bike when the fork is compressed and released.
Warning: When installing the wheel or a new tire, check for minimum clearance. Measure from the highest point on
the tire to the under side of the crown. There must be 1/8” or 3mm more clearance than the fork’s travel to ensure adequate clearance in all riding conditions. Any less clearance can result in the tire hitting the crown resulting in serious injury or death.

TUNING
To get the most out of your White Brothers fork, it is important that you tune the fork to fit your weight, riding style and the terrain you ride.
INITIAL BREAK-IN PERIOD
Your new fork is designed to break-in over a period of 10 hours or more of riding. As all the parts bed into each other, the stiction (friction) of the fork decreases and the sensitivity increases. After the initial brake-in period, fine tuning the air pressure and damping adjustments may be beneficial to achieve the best possible performance.
TOOLS NEEDED:
High pressure air pump
15/16” socket with ratchet.
6mm Allen wrench
AIR SPRING /CARTRIDGE DAMPER
Your new White Brothers fork is designed with air sprung support. The following guidelines
for checking and adjusting your air pressure will enable you to enjoy maximum performance from your fork.
1. First, test ride the fork over easy terrain. If after riding the fork over varied terrain you decide that more tuning is necessary, continue to the next step.
2. The compression or spring of the fork can be changed two ways: 1) by changing air pressure and 2) adjusting the settings of the damper cartridge.
3. To change the air pressure remove the snap in dust cap (use a finger nail or small screw driver) so that the schrader valve stem is exposed (see Figure #4).
4. You will need a high pressure shock pump to inflate the fork. Start with the stock setting of 80 lbs. If the fork feels too soft or firm, fine tune the air pressure until the fork sag is approximately 15 to 25 percent of the total travel. A small air pressure change will make a large difference.
5. Test ride after each adjustment until the air pressure is at an adequate setting. Generally you will want a higher pressure for a 80mm fork and a lower pressure for a 100mm fork. Reinstall the dust cap.
Air Spring
Lockout / Compression Adjuster
Rebound Adjuster
6. Compression adjustment (lockout) is done by turning the knob on the top of the right leg and is a lockout when turned full clockwise. WARNING: The lockout is designed to be used on smooth terrain only. DO NOT lockout the fork on rough terrain, bumps or drop­offs. Turning the knob counter-clockwise from lockout will provide less and less compression damping. Less compression damping will increase the fork dive but will feel smoother over small bumps. More compression damping will feel stiffer over small bumps but will be more resistant to bottoming. The compression / lockout knob has ¾ of a turn of adjustment. If more damping range is needed, contact White Brothers.
7. Rebound adjustment is done by turning the adjuster on the bottom of the right leg. Turn the knob clockwise for slower rebound. To speed up rebound, turn the knob counter­clockwise. Start with a middle setting and fine tune the rebound from there. Proper rebound will allow the tire to track the ground over consecutive bumps. Rebound set too slow will cause the fork to pack-up (feel stiff over consecutive bumps) while rebound set too fast will cause the fork to top out. Adjustment range is 6 turns.

MAINTENANCE
Your White Brothers fork requires periodic maintenance to ensure peak performance and long life. Neglecting proper
maintenance will reduce the fork’s life. Internal build up of water and dirt or a lack of lubrication will cause excessive wear and void the warranty.
BEFORE EVERY RIDE: Visually inspect your fork for bent or broken parts, loss of oil, abnormal sounds or other indications
of possible fork failure. Compress you fork to verify proper function. Check all other bicycle components to ensure proper working order.
AFTER EVERY RIDE: Clean and dry the exterior of your fork. When cleaning the fork, do not direct the water spray at the
seals. Visually inspect your fork for damage.
*EVERY 30 HOURS OF RIDING: Your fork should be disassembled, inspected, cleaned and re-grease. If the fork appears to
be relatively clean, you can go 40 hours between servicing. If the fork appears excessively dirty you should service it every 20 hours. The three things that will effect the service interval and performance of your fork are water, mud and dust. How much you use your fork in those conditions will determine how much service it requires.
*EVERY 100 HOURS OF RIDING: Complete service should include removing the lower fork legs cleaning and re-greasing
all shafts, bushings and seals. Check top cap assembly’s, damper cartridge, stanchion plug, brake post bolts and shaft bolts for proper torque. At this time, the fork should be carefully inspected for wear and damage before reassembly. Contact White Brothers for replacement parts and service. We recommend that this service be performed by a certified White Brothers service center or by the factory.
*White Brothers recommends that you consult with a qualified technician before performing major service.
Basic Fork Disassembly and Inspection
1. Disconnect the front brake and remove the wheel as outlined in you bicycle owners manual. Important: Pop the cap off the air side and deflate the system. (See Figure #4)
2. The cartridge damper locks out when the upper damper shaft is screwed down against a brass seat. This
provides a very durable and positive lockout that retains it’s seal over long periods of use, however if the upper damper shaft is unscrewed several turns and detaches from the damper piston, the damper must be torn down and rebuilt. Warning: To prevent the upper damper shaft from unscrewing when the fork lowers are removed for lubrication or other maintenance, do not attempt to unscrew the compression screw at the bottom of the right leg without first locking the fork out then removing the lockout knob and the cap and the hex key from the crown on the damper side. After these parts are taken out, the compression screws can be loosened and the lowers detached from the fork stanchions.
3. Pop out the damping adjuster knob from the bottom of the right dropout. Remove the allen bolts at the bottom of the fork legs. (See figure #5) A light tap may be needed to free the control rod from the lower assembly.
4. Simply slide the fork legs off the end of the inner stanchion tubes. Be careful not to damage the seals as they
come off the inner legs.
5. Clean all parts with a clean, non-abrasive rag. A mild grease cutting cleaner or solvent might make this an easier task. Once clean, inspect the seals for tears or cracks. If okay, re-grease them with Slick Honey or other suitable non-lithium grease. If your seals show signs of wear have them replaced.
6. The damper cartridge is threaded into the right fork stanchion. Inspect the cartridge for visible leakage. If none, grasp the shaft while in the stanchion tube, un-lock the damper and operate back and forth to insure smooth action. If the cartridge has visible leakage and/or the damping feels inconsistent as it is stroked, return the cartridge to White Brothers or a dealer familiar with rebuilding the cartridge damper for service.
7. Check the DU bushings carefully for wear. This is done by looking at the color of the bushings. If the bushings are dark gray,
they are in good condition. If they are bronze/gold in areas, they are worn and can cause fork stanchion damage. If there is noticeable movement back and forth when the legs are fully engaged on the fork stanchions, the DU bushings may need to be replaced. Please note that special tools are required to remove and replace these bushings. This service can be performed by certified White Brothers MTB service centers or directly through White Brothers.
8. Next, inspect the fork stanchion tubes for wear, nicks or scrapes. These will cause premature wear on the seals and DU
bushings. Check again for noticeable play between the stanchion tubes and the fork lower.
9. If everything is free of problems, coat all parts with a light coat of Slick Honey or other non-lithium grease. Be sure to lube the DU bushings located inside the lower leg.

Basic Fork Reassembly
1. To re-attach the fork lowers, first push the lower damper shaft upward so that the hex key on the cap can be inserted into the
top damper shaft. Screw down the cap and re-attach the lockout knob by carefully fitting it on the top hex fitting of the key in the cap and replacing the small screw in the center of the knob. Move the knob to the “7 o’clock” or “locked out “ position and HOLD IT THERE. Pull the lower damper shaft downward as far as it will go and turn it clockwise, still holding the knob in the ”locked out” position, until the shaft will not turn. The lock out is now engaged.
2. Make sure all the spacers and bottoming bumpers are installed on the control rods (see exploded views for proper installation). With all parts cleaned and reinstalled with new grease, fit the lower assembly over the stanchion tubes and gently rock and slide together until the control rods are touching the bottom of the lower assembly. Note: Do not tap the lower assembly onto the stanchion tubes. The DU bushings can be dislodged. Thread the compression screws into the control rods starting with the damper side and once again hold the lock out knob in the locked out position and firmly tighten. Adding air may be needed to push the control rod down to the bottom of the leg. This will also help hold the rod from spinning as you tighten the compression screw on the air side. Note: Ensure the compression screws are fully tight before riding.
3. Make sure the fork caps are fully tightened into the top of the stanchion tubes. Connect the front brake and wheel as outlined in you bicycle owners manual.
4. Compress the fork to make sure it works smoothly and that the brake cable does not interfere with the operation of the fork.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Loss of Air Pressure (In Excess of Normal Seepage):
Inflate the fork to 100 psi and spray a mixture of soap and water on the air cap with the dust cap removed. Check for any slow bubbling.
1. Check the tightness of the air cap in the stanchion. It should be tight but not over tight.
2. Check the o-rings for damage, a fiber, hair or large dirt particle. Slow bubbling from the air cap usually indicates a
contaminated air cap o-ring. Remove suspect o-rings with a toothpick. If the o-ring is not cut or torn, cleaning and re-greasing the o-ring usually repairs the leak.
3. Check the valve core for bubbles. Slow bubble formation at the top of the schrader valve (one bubble every 30-60 minutes) is normal, more rapid bubbling indicates a loose or defective valve core. Tighten the valve core with a valve core wrench and see if that stops the leak. If not replace the valve core.
4. If no leak can be seen after one minute, pressure loss probably occurs in use due to a worn or contaminated piston o-ring. To check, let the fork sit at high pressure over night. Re-check pressure to see if there is a loss. If pressure loss happens, the piston o-ring is easy to replace and is available through your local dealer or from White Brothers.
5. If none of these remedies solve the problem contact White Brothers for technical support.
Fork Feels Sticky:
This is usually caused by:
1. A lack of lubrication. Clean and lubricate the fork as outlined in the maintenance section.
2. Contamination inside the fork. Clean and lubricate the fork as outlined in the maintenance section.
3. Fork is not sufficiently broken in. Contact White Brothers for further technical information.
The Fork Bottoms Too Easily:
1. Incorrect air pressure. Add air pressure as outlined in the tuning section.
2. Insufficient compression damping. Add compression damping by turning the adjuster on the top of the right leg clock-wise.
The Fork Doesn’t Use Full Travel:
1. Incorrect air pressure. Remove air pressure as outlined in the tuning section.
2. Excessive compression damping. Reduce the compression damping by turning the adjuster on the top of the right leg counter
clock-wise.
Lockout and/or Damping Adjustment is Not Working
1. Damper may need servicing. Contact White Brothers for technical information.
