Suspension Adjustment

Suspension:
For products with suspension there are a few adjustment proceedures you need to be aware of:
•
Although your suspension is adjustable it
comes pre-adjusted and ready to ride from
the factory.
•
To make adjustments to your suspension,
screw the adjustment screws (fig 1) in
(tighten) for stiffer suspension feel, or out
(loosen) for a more plush feel.
•
It may take a bit of riding for the suspension
to adapt completely to the adjustments made.
Adjustments should be made in small
increments and a light thread lock fluid may be
needed to ensure screw setting.
•
The nut in the middle of the suspension
“knuckle” is for the disassembly of the
suspension only. It takes special tools to
assemble the suspension properly so consult an authorized Go-Ped® Dealer before attempting
any replacement of internal suspension parts.
