I'm going to service Rockshox rear shock and I was wondering what is/are the cSt (centiStoke) rating/s of RockShox 3wt suspension fluid or what brand is this oil originally? I have multiple different weights of Motorex suspension oil and I'm going to use that for the shock (one weight or a mix).
I don't want to go through the hassle of trying different weights and wasting my time with that unless I really have to. I would really appreciate a little help on this problem.
Edit:
Just to answer myself and anyone else interested. It seems that Rockshox uses Torco oil and according to Pvdwiki suspension oil chart it seems that even the lightest (2.5W) Motorex suspension fluid is a bit too thick (compared to original oil). So I may have to buy something else or just try 2.5W Motorex...
