    The front fork suspension on my bike doesn't do anything aha, like I mean I'm driving down the road and I feel everything, it will go down but jam down and wont spring back up :/ this is meaning the bike is getting battered about when I go over bumps' any suggestions.. Thanks

    try lubricating them with grease, or wd40 or something. then just keep trying to push down on suspension untill the grease lubes it up for ya. might just be temporary, i dunno if they have fork seals even though i have same bike lol. but if they have fork seals try replacing them and topping up the fork oil if it is supposed to use it ?. as i dont know if it even uses fork oil

    at the bottom of the fork legs theres a allen bolt unscrew it if you can then spray quite a bit of wd40and just bounce the forks up and down i would personaly just buy another pair of forks there enough people selling nrg/typh forks because a lot of people are replacing them with runner forks
