Manitou Axel Elite travel

[penguinrusty]

I have the 2004 manitou axel elite fork, and it came preset at 80 mm of travel. In the manual, it says that this is changeable to 100 mm. I have heard of a few guys doing it, but I don't know how. I heard something about moving a slider?... Any help would be great!

Sorted this on a friends rockhopper with axel elites on, its not to tricky providing you have the confidence to strip and rebuild your fork: full details and pic's of how to do it

if in doubt ur LBS will sort it, it is far less embarassing to get them to do it in the first place rather than taking the bits to them for them to rebuild!
Cheers
