In order to achieve optimum suspension performance, Felt recommends performing
a simple pivot checking procedure after every 100 hours of riding or annually,
whichever comes first. If any issues are discovered, please refer to the bearing
removal/installation section or take your bike to the nearest Felt dealer.
Pivot Checking Procedure
1. Check torque on all pivot bolts. If bolts are loose, remove, clean and apply Loctite
242, then tighten to correct torque (see technical section for torque values).
2. With the shock installed, apply pressure vertically and horizontally to feel for any
play in the pivots. If play is discovered, please refer to the technical section for
more information and instructions for bearing removal/installation.
3. With the shock removed, move the suspension through its travel. There should
be little to no resistance. If there is any resistance, please refer to the technical
section for more information and instructions for bearing removal/installation.
SUSPENSION PIVOT EVALUATION
Move Rear Triangle Through travel.
Before tightening the BB cable guide screws, move the suspension through its
entire range of travel to insure smooth articulation of the brake and shift cables.
