TIPS
IT MAY BE HELPFUL TO HAVE A
SECOND PERSON CHECKING THE
POSITION OF THE INDICATOR
IN SIDE VIEW, BECAUSE OF
POSSIBLE ANGLE ERRORS WHILE
SITTING ON THE SADDLE.
WARNING
DO NOT EXCEED 200 PSI OR
14 BAR MAXIMUM AND BE
CAREFUL NOT TO GET THE
MECHANISM DIRTY WHILE
ADJUSTING.
SET-UP
Useful advice
If you would like to increase the negative travel, you can slightly reduce the pressure in the shock absorber
for additional comfort, or if you ride on very rough terrain.
The indicator will then be positioned above « max ».(For the X-Control, never allow more than 1mm between
the indicator and « max »). You may feel slight pedal bob, but it should be minimal.
On the other hand, there is no real benefit to increasing the pressure higher than necessary.
5 - ZESTY TR / ZESTY AM / SPICY / FROGGY
(OST / OST+)
Our OST+ technology (Optimized Suspension Technology), which was derived from the FPS2 system but
improved for longer travel, also has an indicator that helps set up the sag. The indicator is located on the left
side, on the chainstay. For the Zesty TR, Zesty AM, Spicy and Froggy, the SAG should be set up at between
20 and 30% of the travel of the shock. The set up is the same for these bikes:
5.1 - First make sure the indicator is right in front of « zero » when no one is seated on the bike. Do not
hesitate to adjust the position of the arrow if it is not properly aligned when no one is on the bike.
5.2 - Sit on the bike with your feet on the pedals and in riding position. (Leaning against a wall with your
elbow helps).
5.3 - Once you are balanced, the arrow should fall within the range that is indicated by hatchings on the
sticker. The right adjustment should be from 12 to 17 mm for Zesty, from 13 to 18 mm for Spicy and from 21
to 25 mm for Froggy.
If the indicator points out the hatched range while you are on the bike, you need to:
- Increase the air pressure inside the shock absorber with a high pressure pump or increase the preload
of the spring for spring shock absorber
- Decrease the air pressure or decrease the preload of the spring for spring shock absorbers.
More information about the
ZESTY TR, ZESTY AM
and
SPICY
:
- The SAG should be at 20% (position XC on the display) for a cross country usage (XC), since the
saddle angle is more upright and the suspension stiffer. This will allow you to “feel” the characteristics
of the terrain you are riding on.
- A set up closer to 30% (position FR) corresponds to an Enduro usage. Angles are more pronounced,
so that your position is less upright and the suspension softer
