9.1.8.2
Rebounding too slowly
The
rear shock
does not rebound quickly enough
after a bump has been compensated and is not
in the required initial position when the wheel
hits the next bump. The
rear shock
remains
compressed during successive bumps, thus
reducing
travel
and ground contact and
increasing hardness on the next impact. The rear
wheel bounces off the second bump since the
rear shock
does not rebound quickly enough to
make contact with the ground and return to the
initial position again. The available
travel
and
traction are reduced (blue line).
The
rear shock
remains in a
compressed
state
after contact with the first bump. When the rear
wheel hits the second bump, the saddle follows
the path of the rear wheel instead of remaining
in a horizontal position. The available
travel
and potential absorption of bumps are reduced,
which causes instability and loss of control
during successive bumps (green line).
