FAQs

What tools do I need for installation?

You'll need basic bike tools, including a hex key set, bleed kit, and possibly a torque wrench.

Is the kit compatible with all handlebar sizes?

The kit is designed to work with most handlebar sizes, but it's important to check compatibility with your specific setup, especially regarding the clamp options.

How often should I bleed the hydraulic system?

Bleed the system when you notice a change in the lever feel or dropper post performance, typically every 6-12 months, or as needed.

Where can I find the bleed instructions?

The bleed instructions are included in the kit and are also available on the RockShox website.

What do I do if my dropper post still doesn't work after bleeding?

Check for internal post damage or consider having your dropper post serviced by a professional mechanic.

Can I use the MatchMaker X clamp to attach other components?

Yes, the MatchMaker X clamp is designed to integrate other SRAM components, such as shifters and brake levers.
