Your PORSCHE eBike is fitted with a
suspension fork to make riding on different
types of terrain as comfortable and safe as
possible. This significantly reduces the
impact on your wrist joints caused by uneven
surfaces and makes your eBike noticeably
easier to control on rough tracks and difficult
terrain.
Adjusting the suspension fork
The ROTWILD authorised dealer will check
the factory setting of the suspension and
adjust it to the rider’s weight, if necessary.
The spring pre-load can be adjusted to the
rider’s weight using an air valve on top of the
left fork leg.
On the Porsche eBike Cross/ Sport models,
the suspension fork is correctly adjusted if it
is compressed by 20% of the total
suspension travel when you are sitting on the
bike.
The seal on the right-hand fork leg will help
you to identify the suspension travel.
Figure 44: Valve for adjusting the fork pressure.
You will find the recommended air pressures
in the instruction manual provided by the fork
manufacturer. You will also find detailed
information about adjusting the spring
stiffness/softness.
A special air pump must be used for the
suspension forks and shock. A conventional
air pump is not sensitive enough to adjust the
pressure.
If you ride with too much air pressure or no
air pressure in the fork, this will cause
damage. We recommend asking your
ROTWILD authorised dealer to show you
how to adjust the fork pressure.
