Adjusting the Suntour
rear shock
Only applies to
ebikes
with this equipment
Every
rear shock
has specific air pressure
settings
.
These levels are starting points.
These settings can be changed based on
riding skills, trail conditions, frame design
and personal preferences.
After setting up the rear
shock
, check the sag to
ensure the recommended sag settings are used.
The fork sag is adjusted.
When adjusting the sag, ensure that the
compression and rebound adjuster is in an open
position, i.e. the
lockout lever
is in the OPEN
position.
1
Remove the valve cap from the
air valve
.
2
Attach a
shock
pump to the valve.
3
Pump the damper to the required pressure.
Never exceed the recommended maximum air
pressure.
4
Detach high-pressure
shock
r pump.
5
Measure the distance between the air chamber
seal and the end of the
rear shock
. This
distance is the
total
rear shock
travel
.
6
Use the O-ring or a cable tie on the damper
body to gauge the sag correctly.
7
Put on your normal cycling clothing, including
rider all gear
.
8
Sit on the
ebike
in your usual riding position
and support yourself against an object, such as
a wall or tree.
9
Push the O-ring or cable tie downwards
against the air chamber seal.
10
Get off the
ebike
without
causing the
fork
to
drop further into its travel.
11
Measure the distance between the air chamber
seal and the O-ring. This measurement is the
sag. The recommended value is between
25% (hard) and 30% (soft) of the
total
rear
shock
travel
.
have reached the desired sag.
If the sag is correct, fasten the
valve cap
onto
the valve.
