SPV SET-UP QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE   

This quick reference guide is to be used for setting up the any Swinger shock. Follow this order to 
ensure the best possible tuning. 

* Coil and Air Shock Initial Set Up   

1. Adjust Sag:   

Sag is the amount the shock compresses under normal body weight. On the air shock, there are sag 
incrementations on the inside of the shock that can be used to help adjust sag. 
 
Cross country:    25-30% Sag   
Freeriding:         30-40% Sag   

 

2. Set SPV Pressure:   

Range should be between 75 and 150 psi. Pressure should be between 50-70% of body weight. 
More pressure will create more compression damping, hold the bike up more and pedal better. Less 
pressure will create less compression damping, allow more sag, and be more responsive and supple. 
 

3. Set SPV Volume:   

You should begin with the 16mm adjuster completely backed out. Turning the volume adjuster 
inwards will create a more progressive damping effect making the suspension firmer from the 
middle to bottom out. Turning the volume adjuster outwards will make the rear shock more linear 
in compression damping and be a softer finish. 
 

4. Rebound Damping:   

Turn the blue knob located on the eyelet mount clockwise to increase rebound damping. 
   

5. Low Speed Compression Damping (6-way adjust only):   

Turn in the red adjustment knob to increase chassis stability (also may decrease supply feel of 
shock). 
 

6. High Speed Compression Damping (6-way adjust only):   

Turn in the black adjustment knob to increase high-speed bottom resistance. 
 

*Note:  

On the 6-way shock, please make sure that the two compression adjuster knobs on the reservoir are 
fully open when setting the shock pressure and volume. You can turn them after you set up the 
pressure and volume adjuster to achieve more compression damping
