Troubleshooting, fault clearance and repair

9.1.13.3 Suspension too soft on inclines

The fork deflects at a low point in the terrain. The
deflection is quickly used up, body weight shifts
forward, and the pedelec loses some momentum.

Figure 214: Excessively soft suspension in the suspension fork on hilly terrain

Solution

Figure 215: Changing compression adjuster to a harder
setting



Turn compression adjuster clockwise.



The damping and compression hardness is
increased, and the deflection stroke speed is
reduced. Efficiency on hilly and flat terrain is
improved.
