Operation
2
Pump air suspension fork to the required
pressure. Observe the levels in the
Suntour
filling pressure table
. Never exceed the
recommended
maximum air pressure
.
3
Detach high-pressure damper pump.
4
Measure the distance between the
crown
and
the
dust seal
. This distance is
total deflection
of the fork.
5
Push a temporarily attached cable tie
downward against the
dust seal
.
6
Put on your normal cycling clothing, including
luggage.
7
Sit on the S pedelec in your usual riding
position and support yourself against an
object, such as a wall or tree.
8
Get off the S pedelec without allowing it to
deflect.
9
Measure distance between the
dust seal
and
the cable tie.
This measurement is the negative deflection.
The recommended value is between 15%
(hard) and 30% (soft) of the total fork
deflection.
10
Increase or reduce air pressure until you have
reached the desired negative deflection.
If the negative deflection is correct, turn the
valve cap
in a clockwise direction.
If you are unable to achieve the desired
negative deflection, an internal adjustment
may be needed. Contact your specialist dealer.
6.6.5.4 Adjusting the air suspension fork
rebound
The
rebound
setting depends on the
negative
deflection
setting: A higher negative deflection
requires a lower rebound setting.
1
Turn the
Suntour rebound screw
in a
clockwise direction to the closed position until
it stops.
Figure 31: Suntour rebound screw (2), fork (1)
2
Turn the
Suntour rebound screw
slightly in an
anti-clockwise direction.
3
Adjust the rebound in such a way that the fork
rebounds quickly, but without bottoming out
upward. Bottoming out refers to when the fork
rebounds too quickly and stops moving
abruptly once it has reached the full rebound
distance. You can hear and feel a slight impact
when this happens.
