Suspension forks
Many MERIDA pedelecs have suspension forks
(e)
.
This feature gives you better control of your MERIDA
pedelec when riding cross-country or on rough road
surfaces and ensures more ground contact for the tire.
The (shock) loads on you and your MERIDA pedelec
are noticeably reduced. Suspension forks differ in their
types of spring elements and damping. Suspension
forks normally work with air spring elements or with
coil springs. Damping is usually done by oil.
To work perfectly, the fork has to be adjusted to the
weight of the rider, the sitting posture and the intended
use
(f)
. Be sure to have this adjustment carried out by
your MERIDA dealer at the time of delivery.
For more information see the chapter “Suspension forks”
in your comprehensive MERIDA user manual as well as
in the instructions of the suspension fork manufacturers.
G The suspension fork should be set up and
adjusted in a way that it does not reach the
end of its travel, i.e. bottoms out, unless in
extreme cases. A spring rate which is too soft (too low
air pressure) can usually be heard or felt as a “clunk”
type noise. This noise is caused by the sudden com-
plete compression of the suspension fork as it reaches
bottom out. If the suspension fork frequently reaches
bottom out, it will sustain damage over time, and so
will the frame.
G A too strong damping of the suspension fork
can result in a sluggish rebound movement
with a rear shock that will not recover when
exposed to a quick series of impacts. Risk of a fall!
G Do not turn any bolt and particularly not by
using tools in the hope that it is an adjusting
device. You could be loosening the fastening
mechanism, thus causing an accident. All manufac-
turers normally mark adjustment devices with a scale
or with “+” (for stronger damping/harder suspension)
and“-“ signs.
G Due to their design suspension forks are
able and have to absorb shocks. If the fork
is too rigid and blocked the shocks are in-
troduced directly into the frame without any damping.
This could damage the fork itself as well as the frame.
If your suspension fork has a lockout mechanism
(g+h)
do not activate the lockout function when riding
in rough terrain but only when riding over smooth ter-
rain (roads, field tracks).
I Suspension fork manufacturers normally
supply instructions. Read them carefully
before changing any settings or doing any
maintenance work on your suspension fork.

nance is also available on the internet at
