Chapter 3: Adjustment33
Suspension
If you adjust your suspension, your bicycle will
turn and stop differently. After you adjust the
suspension, carefully examine your bicycle in a
low traffic area until you know its performance.
Sag is the compression of a shock that occurs
when the rider sits on the bicycle in a usual
position. For the initial adjustment, set the forks
at approximately 15% sag, and a rear shock at
approximately 25% sag. Try small changes to
find your preference.
With the correct adjustment, you should not
be able to fully compress the suspension.
If the suspension is fully compressed, its
movement will stop suddenly and could
decrease your control.
Each week, check the bolts on all suspension
parts: attachment bolts and pivot bolts.
See the CD or web site for more adjustment
and maintenance aid, or speak to your dealer.
Accessories
Your bicycle might have parts that have not
been discussed in this chapter. These parts,
such as fenders, lights, racks, chainguard,
or kickstand, are accessories. Each month,
examine the accessories to make sure they are
correctly attached. If the part is loose or not in
alignment, tighten the part or transport your
bicycle to your dealer for repair.
To install a light bulb
The bulb has markings that indicate the
correct voltage. When purhcasing spares or
replacements, take the bulb with you to the
store to make sure you purchase the correct
bulb for your light.
1. Find the lens set-screw on the rear of the light.
2. Turn the screw counterclockwise. Remove it.
3. Turn the lens one quarter-turn clockwise. Pull
the lens assembly off of the
bulb-attachment.
4. Turn the bulb counterclockwise. Remove it.
Be careful not to crush the glass of the bulb.
Do not dislodge the wire in the base of the
bulb-attachment.
5. Turn a new bulb in until it is slightly tight.
6. Put the lens on the bulb-attachment. Turn the
lens one quarter-turn counterclockwise.
7. Put the lens set-screw in the rear of the light.
Tighten the screw.
Make sure the new bulb operates. If it does not,
examine the wires for correct position, and make
sure that the new bulb does not have damage.
