9.5.2.4 Excessively hard damping on bumps
When the bike hits a bump, the fork deflects too
slowly and the wheel lifts up from the bump.
Traction decreases when the wheel no longer
touches the ground.
The headset and handlebars are deflected
upwards significantly, which can impair control.

Solution
Figure 246: Changing compression adjuster to a softer
setting
Turn
compression adjuster
in a clockwise
direction towards OPEN.
The damping and compression hardness
reduces and the deflection stroke speed is
reduced. Sensitivity to small bumps is
increased.
