Tricky Air Ride bleeding air

[Raven]

Hey all...so I've had my Tricky air ride for approx 5 years and just recently have noticed that when parked for a day or two the air bleeds down to the point where its right to the bottom and I have to raise before I go out for a ride. Seems to be fine when I'm riding just want to know if there's an issue I should address before it completely fails. Appreciate the feedback, cheers....

I have the same issue. I did email Tricky and the fellow suggested using soapy water to determine the location of the leak, and they would make a suggestion as to how it might be fixed. I never really have gotten around to doing it.

Thanks dreadly. Yeah, its not too much of a concern for me atm just worried if I have a complete failure while Im on a long trip. Thankfully I have the 1" spacer but would still be a rough ride to get home

When we get a sunny day here, I might go poke around and see what I can find.

In 2017 flipper almost went down because of his Tricky air ride leaking down on a steep mountain road in Colorado - when he got home he took it off.

That we be enough for me to take it off.

When i had the tricky air ride it would leak on the stab lock connector where the air line connects to the cylinder,  remove the line and cut a 1/4" to 1/2" off and reconnect  and another issue was it would leak out of the  rebound knob if thats the problem the cylinder has to be  rebuilt,  spray soapy bubbles on it to check it

Thanks Fiddles was hoping you would chime in. Did you get it sorted out and put back on your bike?

Mine has leaked down if I let it set for a month or so without riding for last two years or better, I think the o rings in the connectors just leak after a while... I don’t think it’s going just all of a sudden lose air on you. If it does you should be able to notice it pretty fast !
