9.5.3.4 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 254: Changing compression adjuster to a softer
setting
Turn
compression adjuster
anti-clockwise.
The damping and compression hardness is
reduced and the deflection stroke speed is
increased. Sensitivity to small bumps is
increased.
