8.1 - FOx REAR SHOCK ABSORBER SETTINgS
there are several set up options for this shock absorber. Please carefully read the fox user’s manual.
first the preload of the spring must be set up. usually a sag between 22 and 30 mm will give good results.
it may be necessary to adjust the spring rate if the settings cannot be properly adjusted with the original
one. the air pressure in the booster valve is related to the compression set up. the sag should be adjusted
between 8,5 and 13 bars. in order to have a more precise set up you can use the compression dial, and adjust
the bottom-out control with the blue dial, which reduces the air volume in the booster valve.
the rebound set up must be done with the red dial.
