Low Speed Compression Damping
Low speed compression damping con-
trols how the shock absorber reacts to
a low suspension velocity (slow com-
pression strokes, in most cases when
riding at lower speeds).

High Speed Compression Damping
High speed compression damping
controls how the shock absorber re-

(quick compression strokes, in most
cases when riding at higher speeds).
