Hello. Somewhere but I can't find it. I have a hard front forks. Will the bottom screw fix it and how to do it? I don't want to do anything with oil. Thank you

Have you bled the air out from the Scrader valves at the top? Pressure can build up over time and make the forks hard.

I've fitted air bleed valves on my forks just a quick press before I head out and any pressure is released

I put 7.5wt oil in 100mm from the top a bit higher than standard 110mm . Thirteen clicks out on the adjusters.  ( bottom of the fork legs)

I have the same valves. But please describe exactly how to make the bottom regulators.
Thank you

Thank you. I think I translated well. First, screw all the way to the right and then to the left as many clicks until it's okay. Truth?
