Info
For various reasons, no exact riding sag can be determined for the fork.
401000-01
–
As with the shock absorber, smaller differences in the rider's weight can be com-
pensated by the spring preload.
–
However, if the fork is often overloaded (hard end stop on compression), harder
springs must be fit to avoid damage to the fork and frame.
