Turn the red adjusting knob in the direction “+“
(a)
un-
til you hear a click. Compress the fork once again with
the front wheel brake pulled and the remove the weight
abruptly once again. You will note that the rear shock
extends more slowly.
Repeat the compression and the release by continuous-
ly turning the rebound damping. You will get a feeling for
the working of the rebound damping.
The typical setting of the rebound damping is an exten-
sion of the suspension components at reduced speed,
however not at a sluggish pace. A rebound movement
at reduced speed ending up in a sluggish movement is a
definitely too high damping.
Ride over an obstacle (e.g. down a kerb) subsequently
and turn the rebound damping in small steps towards
the “+” setting. You have found the proper rebound set-
ting when the suspension fork does not cycle more than
once. Always check a changed adjustment during a test
ride in the terrain.
Some suspension forks have a compression damping
(b+c)
in addition. The typical compression damping, or
on some suspension forks the high-speed compression
damping, slows down the compression when riding at
high speed over an obstacle. A high compression speed
would possibly make the fork bottom out.
A weaker damping ensures a good responsive perfor-
mance, leads however to an excessive compression of
the suspension fork when riding at high speed over ob-
stacles, e.g. steps, or to a bouncing when riding out of
the saddle under certain conditions. A too strong damp-
ing hardens the suspension and thus reduces the riding
comfort.
If you have set the sag correctly, as above described,
and the fork works properly during a normal test ride,
but bottoms out in an extreme situation, you can in-
crease the compression damping.
Proceed click by click as a too strong compression
damping prevents the suspension fork from using the
complete suspension travel. The setting of the compres-
sion damping can be a long process which has to be
carried out consciously and always in small steps.
Start with the lowest step, i.e. the adjusting knob must
be turned fully towards the marking “-“.
Always check a changed adjustment during a test ride
in the terrain

If you do not trust the setting of the damping or if prob-
lems occur with it, contact your MERIDA dealer or fol-
low the corresponding operating instructions of the sus-
pension fork manufacturer, which you can find on this
MERIDA CD-ROM.
