Description
Rebound damping
Only applies to pedelecs with this equipment
Rebound damping defines the speed at which the
suspension rebounds after being loaded.
Rebound damping controls the suspension fork
extension and rebound speed, which, in turn, has
an impact on traction and control.
Rebound damping can be adjusted to body
weight, spring stiffness, deflection, the terrain and
the rider's preferences.
If the air pressure or spring stiffness increases,
the extension and rebound speeds also increase.
Rebound damping needs to be increased to
achieve an optimal setting if the air pressure or
spring stiffness are increased.
The damper rebounds at a controlled speed if the
fork is optimally adjusted. The wheel stays in
contact with the ground when passing over bumps
(blue line).
The fork head, handlebars and body follow terrain
(green line) when riding over bumps. The
suspension motion is predictable and controlled.

Suspension fork compression adjustment
Only applies to pedelecs with this equipment
The compression adjuster allows the rider to
make quick adjustments to the fork's suspension
behaviour to adapt to the changes in terrain. It is
intended for adjustments made during the ride.
The compression adjuster controls the
compression lifting speed or the rate at which the
fork deflects slow impacts. The compression
adjuster affects the absorption of bumps and its
efficiency when weight shifts or during transitions, cornering and uniform impacts caused by bumps,
and when braking. When optimally adjusted, the
fork counteracts deflection, stays higher in its
deflection range and helps to maintain speed
while riding on hilly parts of terrain. The fork
deflects quickly and unhindered when the bike hits
a bump and absorbs the bump. Traction is
retained (blue line).
