III) Shock Tuning
The following steps are recommended for fine tuning your shock. As an
additional resource, we recommend seeing MRP’s Owner’s Manual. It can
be found online at
www.mrpbike.com/tech-resources.
All adjustments are measured by fully closing the knob clockwise and
counting down in the counter clockwise direction. The dial may have range
past zero, but it is relatively ineffective adjustment.
Set Sag Before You Make Any Adjustments:
The appropriate spring must be installed and set to the correct sag before
you can fine tune your shock. Sag sets the shock to a starting window. The
adjustment knobs help you adjust within that window.
Step 1)
Set rebound and low speed compression to the middle of their adjustment
range.
Step 2)
Set the high speed compression to fully
open and add resistance during harsh
bottom out instances.
High speed compression (HSC) controls the
shock’s threshold for fast movements. Such
movements can be caused by quick impacts
with moguls or choppy trails. The goal is to
run as little HSC as possible to keep a plush
ride without harshly bottoming out.
If the shock is harshly bottoming out turn the adjuster clockwise to
add bottom out resistance.
Lighter and beginner skiers will run less HSC than heavier and
aggressive skiers.
Once a high speed compression setting has been found it will usually be left
unchanged. The goal is to set bottom out resistance for the biggest impact
