REBOUND FORK SET-UP

“Rebound” describes the speed the fork returns back 
to its original length after absorbing an obstacle, 
setting of this is very important for the handling and 
correct function of the bike.

The rebound adjustment dial location may vary form 
fork to fork please consult the manual that came with 
this bike. 

After the fork pressure/SAG is correctly set ride your 
bike in a safe area with your riding gear/backpack, 
etc. While remaining in the saddle, ride you bike off a 
drop/kerb of about 10-15 cm.

 

-

If it bounces 1-2 times and settles the set-up is good.

 

-

If it bounces more than 3 times the rebound is too fast, turn the knob 1-2 “clicks” 
clockwise and repeat.

 

-

If there is no bounce the rebound is too slow, turn the knob 1-2 click counter clockwise 
and repeat.

 

-

Repeat these steps until the desired result is achieved.

Your SCOTT Scale bike was designed to be used in conjunction with a specific forks, 
changing the  forks on your bike may cause poor/unsafe riding characteristics or damage
