SUSPENSION FORK • DAMPER (SHOCK)
You can set the spring pre-tension of the fork by turning the late-

76
.
Depending on equipment, the adjustment screw is on the left,
right or both sides of the fork.
Stiffer deflection turn clockwise (+)
More comfortable suspension Turn counter­clockwise (–)
LOCKOUT/REMOTE LOCKOUT
The lockout function completely blocks the deflection of the fork.
This helps specifically if you ride a mountain bike on asphalted,
well-paved paths or uphill.
SWITCHING THE SUSPENSION ON/OFF
Turn the lever
77

DAMPER (SHOCK)
You can adjust the dampers (or shocks) specifically to your weight
and the terrain.
The air damper can be adjusted with the adjusting screw
80
or
with air pressure. The negative deflection (also called the SAG va-

from the cyclist's weight, sitting position and the geometry of the
frame.
The SAG value should be between 15% and 25% of the total deflec-
