Kid had everything I needed to bleed my Reverb and get it working again and back on the trail. I come to realize that even when working properly I don’t like this post and am in the process of replacing it with a cable operated PNW. So waste of money? Well I got several rides in I wouldn’t have without the bleed kit.;

Alright this is the correct bleed kit with the right fluid for a good price. Here's the procedure also wear safety googles and gloves.

1) Fill a syringe with 2/3rd capacity and another with 1/3 capacity volumetrically.
2) Pull both syringe plungers to suck the oil in and put all the air at the top. Slowly push the air out to get any air out of both syringes
3) Use the included Torx to remove the bleed screw of the Monarch XX (in the middle of rebound adjustment) and screw in the 2/3rd capacity syringe
4) Loosen your Xloc remote and position it highest on the handbars (e.g. head pressure) and upside down to expose the bleed screw. Use the Torx to remove the bleed screw and attach the 1/3rd filled syringe. Make sure the Xloc is in locked position (fully extended).
5) Push the 2/3rd syringe and pull on the 1/3rd syringe and go back and forth until all the air gets into the at the top syringe installed at the Xloc remote. (e.g. like 4-5 times)
6) Once you have all the air out of the hydraulic line make sure to even out the syringes by volume by 1/2 capacity. You want to do this by pushing the bottom syringe (Monarch XX) and pulling top syringe (Xloc) for the last bleed.
7) Remove the bottom syringe first (Monarch XX) replace the bleed screw into the shock.
8) Your Xloc should still be in locked position (full extended). Hold the button and pull on the syringe to pull vacuum and HOLD. Air bubbles will start coming out of the remote. When no more air comes out pull harder to pull any air in the body of syringe from the bleed tube adapter.
9) While still HOLDING the piston press the Xloc into the normal position (compressed). Air should come out. Pull a little more to suck the air into the syringe body.
10) Once all the air is in the body release the syringe. Press the Xloc into lock-out (fully extended) and press the syringe to force oil into the remote.
11) Repeat 8 thru 10 until there's no more air inside the Xloc remote.
12) When there's no more air remove the syringe drop a few drops of oil if it's not overflowing and replace bleed screw in Xloc remote.

Yeah it's a pain. But that's how you do it right.

FYI: If you rebuild your rear shox and it doesn't hold suspension/sag. It's not because you need your rebuild wasn't done right it's because the Xloc remote has air in it. Always bleed the Xloc when you rebuild either the front or rear shocks on your Cannondale (or any bike with this).

Most of the YouTube videos are partially right/wrong and SRAM has terrible documentation. I basically took the best info from YouTube SRAM and Forum to comes up with this procedure.

Enjoy the ride!;
