WHAT IS TRACTION TUNED?
We want to promote very responsive suspension performance, so we have developed Traction Tune for the Ripmo.
We recommend having high-speed adjustments wide open or close to it, and using just enough low-speed
damping to provide stability to the bike.
For maximum traction and performance, your front and rear suspension need to be balanced. To achieve
proper balance, you need to setup your suspension so it matches your style and the steepness of your terrain.
Here is the recommended procedure to get the most out of your suspension.
First, set your fork sag with your riding gear on. Determine the sag by picking a riding style listed
below. While in a standing position on the bike
(see illustration)
, set the sag to the correct number
of mm. Use the starting guidelines from the chart below left, these will generally get you close
to 28% sag. You will likely need to raise or lower pressures to get the recommended setting.
28% / 45mm Sag:
Best for normal trail riding where efficient pedalling and a stable platform is required.
30% / 48mm Sag:
For aggressive riding in terrain that demands your attention.
32% / 51mm Sag:
Use for rough, steep, slippery trails when maximum control is a must.

SAG RANGE
SAG
is the amount your
fork compresses under
your body weight (don’t
forget to include your
riding gear), also referred
to as Rider Weight.
Remember that these are
only starting points and
adjustments will vary
based on rider ability,
trail conditions and
personal preference.
