MTB Fork Lockout Cap (SR Suntour RAIDON)

thingiverse

After losing my lockout cap for my SR Suntour Raidon fork, I received a replacement, but decided to create one instead in order to add more orange to my bike. Additionally, this way I'll have a spare in case it gets lost again. This custom-made cap will definitely fit a RAIDON XR-LO-R and an XCR model, although I'm not entirely sure if it's compatible with any other models. To print the cap successfully, you need to fine-tune your print settings so that it fits snugly. Also, print it upside down, as this way there are only minor overhangs and no bridges. Update 2018-11-18: I made some adjustments to the design. I lengthened the lever arm a bit, added a small bump to match the bottom of the original cap, and created a version with text on it. Installation Notes: When installing the custom-made cap, you need to tighten the lockout mechanism of your fork. Insert a 5mm hex key into the cap and the little gear, then tighten that up. Next, use a longer 4mm hex key and loosen the recessed bolt. Pump the fork a few times and then tighten it until it's just barely snug. At this point, your fork should be locked out, allowing you to reinsert the gear piece and clip the cap on in the "locked" position (handle pointing towards the rear of your bike). Turning the cap counterclockwise will turn the gear, which has a 4mm hex axle that opens up a valve, allowing your fork to function. Experiment with the tightness until it's working properly, as it may take some trial and error (my lockout didn't work at all initially for some reason).
