1. Remove the existing fork from the bicycle and the crown race from the fork. Measure the length of the
fork steerer tube against the length of the RockShox steerer tube. The RockShox steerer tube may need
cutting to the proper length. Make sure there is sufficient length to clamp the stem (refer to the stem
manufacturer's instructions). Install the upper crown when taking the steerer tube measurements. If
using a direct mount stem, make sure the steerer is exposed 5mm above the upper crown. Use a short
upper crown for head tube and headset stack heights of less than 160 mm or a tall upper crown for
DO NOT ADD THREADS TO ROCKSHOX THREADLESS STEERERS. THE
STEERER TUBE CROWN ASSEMBLY IS A ONE-TIME PRESS FIT.
REPLACEMENT OF THE ASSEMBLY MUST BE DONE TO CHANGE THE
LENGTH, DIAMETER OR HEADSET TYPE (THREADED OR
THREADLESS).
DO NOT REMOVE OR REPLACE THE STEERER TUBE. THIS COULD
RESULT IN THE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE BICYCLE WITH POSSIBLE
SERIOUS AND/OR FATAL INJURIES.
stack heights up to 185mm.
2. Install the headset crown race (29.9mm for 1 1/8" steerers) firmly against the top of the fork crown.
Install the fork assembly on the bike. Adjust the headset until you feel no play or drag. (Note: all upper
crown pinch bolts and stem steerer pinch bolts must be loose to adjust headset properly) Make sure
that the minimum distance of exposed upper tube between the fork's dust wiper and bottom of lower
crown is the same as the fork's maximum travel:

3. Install the brakes according to the manufacturer's instructions and adjust brake pads properly. Use the
fork only with disc style brakes mounted through the provided mounting holes.
4. Apply grease or anti-seize to the axle. Set the wheel in the recesses of the dropouts and insert the 20
mm axle. Torque the axle bolt to a maximum of 40 to 60 in-lb. Tighten axle clamp bolts to 20 to 30
in-lb max.
5. Keep in mind tire clearance as you choose tires. Maximum size is 2.7 x 26" wide or 710 mm diameter
installed. Be sure to check this diameter whenever you change tires. To do this, remove the top caps and
spring stack assemblies and compress the fork completely to make sure at least 5 mm of clearance exists
between the top of the tire and the bottom of the crown. Exceeding maximum tire size will cause the tire
to jam against the crown when the fork is fully compressed. The upper tubes must always be fully
engaged in the crown with no more than 160 mm of exposed upper tube above the lower crown.
The Boxxer forks is designed as a high performance, world class downhill and freeride fork.
