Turning bike upside down...

Yep its fine to turn the bike upside down

the only time you will have a problem with this is if you are running Rockshox boxxers. Turning them upside down to fast can cause them to top out and blow the damping pistons

Ive just recently bought a new mountain bike (GT Avalanche 0.0 ) and since ive never had Hydro disc brakes and front shocks with damping, these, ( http://www.rockshox.com/mountain/psylo/xc.asp ) is it still ok to turn the bike upside down with brake fluid and the fluid within the shocks?

I almost bort the avalnche 0.0 for $AU1800. Looks like a sweet ride but i found the compentry was mixed and matched and ended up buying a bike from a bike shop that built the bike how i wanted it for just $AU1900. The bike included a khs alite 2000 frame, full XT components, magura hydrolic disks and rockshox duke forks and top line shimano rims.
Back to the point... some hrdrolic disk brake kits should never be turned upside down. Depending on the system. the best way to check if urs can be turned upside down or not is to check the manufacturers site. If they can not be turned upside down, and u did, u will end up with air bubbles in the cable and the compression rate of ur brakes will be stuffed and need to be completely drained and all this other time consuming BS.
