DAMPER SHOCK
You can adjust the dampers (or shocks) specifically to your weight and the terrain.
The air damper can be set by air pressure. The negative deflection (also called the SAG value) ex-
presses the compression of the damper that results only from the cyclist's weight, sitting position
and the geometry of the frame.
The SAG value should be between 20% and 40% of the total deflection (51 mm). If the SAG value is
exceeded or not reached, the air pressure of the damper must be adjusted.
MEASURING THE SAG VALUE
1. Attach a cable tie to the piston
46
and push it to the dust
seal
45
.
2. Sit on the bike in the riding position. Do not rock to avoid
falsifying the SAG value.
3. Carefully get off of the bicycle.
4. Measure the negative deflection (SAG value) between the
dust seal
46
of the damper and the cable tie.
SETTING THE DAMPER
DANGER OF DAMAGE AND ACCIDENTS!
• Do not exceed the maximum air pressure released for the damper (19 bar/275
psi). Damage to the damper and frame may occur.
WARNING!
Use an air pump with pressure gauge to set or check the air pressure.
1. Take off the valve cap
44
.
2. Apply the air pump to the valve of the damper and check the air pressure at the pressure
gauge.
3. Check the air pressure if necessary.
ADJUSTING THE REBOUND DAMPING
The rebound damping controls the decompression speed of the suspension after compressing
the suspension. The decompression speed of the suspension affects the contact of the wheel
with the ground which, in turn, affects control and efficiency. The damper should decompress fast
enough to maintain traction without feeling unsteady or erratic. If the rebound damping is too
strong, the damper will not decompress fast enough before the next shock.
1. To increase the rebound damping, turn the adjustment knob
43
clockwise. To reduce the re-
bound damping, turn the adjustment knob counterclockwise.
