SAG
Your SCOTT bike will be supplied with a SAG tool to help set up your bikes suspension, these
SAG tools can be easily clipped on the fork body and Fork dust seal.
For the best performance it is recommended you start with SAG of 15-20% for forks.
1. Make sure before any adjustment is made that your forks are in the “open” position.
2. With the fork pump attached to the fork valve, pump your desired pressure into the fork.
Once the pressure is achieved slowly compress and decompress your fork through 25% of
its travel 10 times. This will equalize the positive and negative air chambers and will change
the pressure on the pump gauge, if needed add or reduce pressure and repeat.
Note the compression/decompression of the fork through the travel must also be done
if the pressure is reduced!
3. Once your desired pressure is reached slide the rubber O-ring on the fork leg against the
dust seal, clip on your SAG tool if required.
4. Sit on your bike in your usual riding position (in your riding gear: if you carry a bag/
Hydration-system put it on,) don’t “bounce” the suspension while doing this, use a wall or
a friend for support if needed.
5. Get off the bike gently without bouncing and check the O-ring position on the fork
stanchion, with the SAG adjuster clipped on. This makes it easy to see where your SAG is
set. Example below.

REBOUND FORK SET-UP
“Rebound” describes the speed the fork returns back
to its original length after absorbing an obstacle,
setting of this is very important for the handling and
correct function of the bike.
The rebound adjustment dial location may vary form
fork to fork please consult the manual that came with
this bike.
After the fork pressure/SAG is correctly set ride your
bike in a safe area with your riding gear/backpack,
etc. While remaining in the saddle, ride you bike off a
drop/kerb of about 10-15 cm.
-
If it bounces 1-2 times and settles the set-up is good.
-
If it bounces more than 3 times the rebound is too fast, turn the knob 1-2 “clicks”
clockwise and repeat.
-
If there is no bounce the rebound is too slow, turn the knob 1-2 click counter clockwise
and repeat.
-
Repeat these steps until the desired result is achieved.
Your SCOTT Scale bike was designed to be used in conjunction with a specific forks,
changing the forks on your bike may cause poor/unsafe riding characteristics or damage
to frame and components, please consult your SCOTT dealer for any assistance you need,
failure to do this may affect your warranty
This is the basic principle on setting your forks up, please always consult the fork owner's
manual for full instructions to familiarize yourself with the product.
