USHING
Like all moving parts, bushings will eventually wear and need replacement. Increased fore and aft movement of
upper tubes in lower tubes (similar to a loose headset) signal the need to remove and replace the bushings. Typically,
bushings need to be replaced once a year. This service requires RockShox specialty tools. We recommend this level
of service be done by a qualified bicycle technician familiar with our products and this procedure.
I
NSTALLATION AND

Disc brake mounting tabs are provided on the left lower leg. Use your brake manufacturer's instructions to install a
disc brake system on your fork.
An optional disc brake cable clamp is available through your dealer, local distributor, or by contacting RockShox.
Important: Do not drill, tap, grind or otherwise modify the Boxxer to mount a disc brake. This
can cause structural failure to the fork and result in loss of control of the bicycle with possible
serious and/or fatal injuries. Modifying the fork also voids the warranty.

PTIONAL
The optional mount may be used for bikes that do not use disc brakes. These mounts are for 'V'-type brakes only and
should not be used with standard cantilever brakes.
Important: Do not use standard cantilever brakes on the Boxxer. This fork is not meant to be used
with these types of brakes. Use of cantilever brakes will result in loss of control of the bicycle
with possible serious and/or fatal injuries.
