Setting the Damping
V2016.10
4.3.2
Compression
The compression damping regulates the compression speed of the fork and can be adjusted in three stages via
the lever on the fork or using the remote lever on the handlebar:
OPEN
In the position «OPEN» the compression can be adjusted using
the blue compression adjusting wheel. The compression will be
increased by turning the wheel clockwise. When the
compression is fully closed, the setting meets the compression
setting of the «Drive Mode».
The adjustment of the compression using the blue compression
adjusting wheel only affects the mode «OPEN». The modes
«DRIVE» and «LOCK» will not be affected.
In the mode «OPEN» the most sensible adjustment is possible.
This is mostly suitable for rough downhills.
DRIVE
The «DRIVE» mode meets the compression setting of the mode «OPEN» with fully closed compression.
In this mode, the adjustment of the blue wheel has no effect (see Open Mode).
The «DRIVE» mode is mostly suitable for riding on terrain without rough sections or for riding uphill away from
paved roads. Depending on the rider‘s preferences, this mode can also be used for any other terrain.
LOCK
The lockout closes the compression damping circuit. The fork cannot be compressed anymore. A pressure
control valve, called «blow-off», protects the system against damages caused by impacts on the fork while the
lockout is activated.
The lock out supports a sporty riding style on flat ground or tarmac uphills. The force of the rider can be fully
converted into speed.
Basic compression setup: 5 clicks based on a fully opened damping.
Based on this setup, the user can fine tune the damping to fit specific needs.
