Sag Setting: Set the sag (20-25% of shock
stroke). See attached pressure chart for starting
air pressure.
Note - the chart is only a starting point, actual sag
needs to the checked and adjusted on the bike,
while riding, and at regular intervals. After setting
the pressure, push the rubber ring up to the seal,
sit on the bike gently, dismount, and measure sag.

Set Standard rebound damping adjuster to rider preference. Typically a slower rebound for slow
speed, bigger hits to eliminate kickback, or faster rebound for higher speeds and smaller hits, so
the suspension does not dive and has time to rebound between bumps
Fox Stumpjumper FSR Brain Fade ride tips: Stumpjumper Brain Fade controls the Trail Tune
inertia valve damping. The blue knob adjusts Trail Tune damping from firm (clockwise) to soft
(counterclockwise) and does NOT completely lock out the shock (ie. Epic).
Fox Triad ride tips (fig. 1): Three compression settings dial in the shock efficiency and ride
characteristics.
1)
Lockout- compression is closed, locking out the shock for the most efficient pedaling setting.
2) ProPedal- adds in slow speed compression to improve shock efficiency while still allowing the
shock to absorb medium and large size hits. This setting is great for all-round riding providing an
efficient pedaling platform while still absorbing trail features.
3) Open- very little compression damping for the most supple and sensitive ride possible.
