Setting the Damping
The correct setting of the damping requires some patience but the full potential of the fork can only be
attained if the setting is perfect.
4.3.1
Rebound
The rebound controls the speed of the decompression movement.
To adjust the rebound damping, turn the red adjusting
knob on the bottom of the right stanchion.
•
Turn clockwise to increase the rebound damping.
•
Turn anti-clockwise to decrease the rebound
damping.
If the rebound damping is too low, the front wheel
decompresses too fast and loses the contact to the ground.
If the rebound damping is too high, the front wheel
cannot follow fast impacts and the suspension hardens.
The aim of setting the rebound damping is to achieve the
best setting possible, which meets the requirements of the
terrain best. Rough, fast downhills require a low rebound damping, while flowy downhills without big hits
require a higher damping.
Basic rebound setup: 12 clicks based on a fully opened damping.
Based on this setup, the user can fine tune the damping to fit specific needs.
If the weight of the rider is more than 75 kg/165 lbs, the rebound should be closed additional 2 to 5
clicks. If the weight of the rider is clearly lower than 75 kg/165 lbs, the rebound should be opened
additional 2 to 5 clicks.
