Recommended Air Pressure
To set air pressure
1. Make sure the bottom of the fork is clean.
Remove the Schrader valve cap. Attach a bicycle
suspension pump to the valve end. Pressurize the fork
according to the table.

2. Now, to fine tune the sag. Without a rider, measure the
fork from the bottom edge of the outer collar to the
bottom edge of the spindle. Next, have someone assist
you. Sit on the bike with your feet on the pedals and
hands on handlebar as if you were in a riding position;
measure length (B), the fork compressed under your
weight.
To calculate the sag, subtract : A - B = SAG (mm).
Add air pressure to decrease sag.
Release air pressure to increase sag.
NOTICE
MAKE SURE THE SUSPENSION PUMP AND FORK
SCHRADER VALVE ARE CLEAN.
Attaching to a
dirty valve or with a dirty pump end can result in
pumping the dirt into the fork. This could result in
damage and air loss.
