hi everyone,
I'm experiencing a bit of an issue with my rear shock.. It knocks quite significantly on rebound.
I've linked the video to this post so you can get an idea of what it is.

It started off as excess stiction and a reluctance to move past the sag point, now it's progressed to a large knock on rebound. As you'll hear in the video, it is quite loud. It also feels fairly harsh as well, like it's topping out too readily.
I'm running 170psi in the shock currently (gets me around 17% sag, I like my efficiency :roll: ) so it's not like I'm running excessive amounts of air pressure.
I'm aware it needs a service/rebuild, but what would have been the cause of this? ie. which component failure?
Bear in mind that the DU Bush is 5-6 months old and bearings are 3 months old..
Thanks
