The Rebound adjuster knob fell off my boxxer. Anyone know where to get a replacement adjuster? And is this a common thing? doesn't look like it is on there very securely.

Did the red knob detach from the allen? If so then use a little adhesive to put them back together. You can also use a 2.5mm hex wrench from your allen wrench set if that doesn't work and you can't find another one.

You can buy the knob at ride-this.com or any LBS can order it for you with the correct part number.

Mine has an allen bolt covering the rebound adjuster. Not externally adjustable, anymore, but I think you can still take the big bolt out and adjust the rebound inside.

I bought it second hand...so...

Mine is an 09. Looks like the knob just kinda pushes on and you can pull it off. It's just a glorified allen key though. Really don't need it to adjust like previously mentioned but just would like to put it back on. Thanks guy's

So just push it back on. Tap it with a mallet or something if it makes you feel better, there will be an audible click.

I have never seen one just come off and not be able to go on. There is a little lock ring type piece that keeps it on the bolt.

Thought so. Your LBS can order you a new on or you can just use the 2.5mm hex wrench to adjust it as needed. Saves weight not to have one

If you cant make it to your LBS to have them order it, you can order it from here: http://aebike.com/page.cfm?action=details&PageID=30&SKU=FK4971

They will have to order it from SRAM as well, so it probably wont ship from them for 2 or 3 days. I just had them order a soft spring for my Boxxer and they have really good customer service. I placed the order last Friday, and the spring is scheduled to deliver today.

agreed, I like AE bike as well. They order stuff then send it to you, but their prices are insane-o

I find these adjusters all over the hill on my rides
I collect them and use them to adjust the brake lever on my Juicy Ultimates
The odd one has gone to a Boxxer rider in need to
