hi, I am trying to find out if by removing spacers from my rockshox recon race solo air (2009 model, i think) it will increase the travel from the current 100mm to 130mm?
I am not sure if it is possible with my model, or if the fork came available in three different travel lenghts.
on my fork it mentions the riders weight and PSI required. it has a small chart that list forks under a column for 80mm and also info for a column for 100-130mm. Does this mean that if I remove the spacers, I will just increase the travel? do these forks have spacers to begin with?
I have no cash to buy a new fork, and I dont want to ruin these forks by trying to adjust the travel if it is not possible.
would someone know more info on this, as I have overheard that it is just a trick of removing the spacers. I am guessing that this will also void any warranty that I have on this fork.
thanks.

so i dont have much experience with fork tuning and service, but if it is simple, I may just give it a try with the help of some friends who know more.
