Valvoline Synthetic ATF as Fork Oil

mq1991 · 06-04-2016, 12:37 PM

Hey everyone, my forks started to feel weird after changing to 150ml of the 10wt fork oil. I changed it out for 200ml of Valvoline Synthetic ATF, and it feels much improved! It doesnt dive nearly as much under braking.

Not sure if its the 50ml difference, or the fluid, but it works really good for my purposes.

Quick question though, will the ATF need to be changed sooner than regular fork oil? Anything else I should watch out for?

Thanks everyone!
