Adjustment of rebound damping
The rebound refers to the hydraulic damping when the shock moves out. The rebound
can be changed by the rebound adjuster which is located on the bottom of the shock.
The rebound damping fixes the speed of the shock moving out.
Before you want to change the rebound, it is essential to know the standard set up. The
best set up for different circuits, rider’s style (with or without passenger) can be obtained
by adjusting the compression and rebound damping to your personal feeling.
The rebound damping has about 14 positions.
•
The minimum rebound damping is position 14 (screw completely turned out)
•
The maximum rebound damping is position 1 (screw completely in)
PS: Never force to turn the screw completely in.
By doing so you can damage the adjustment needle.
GUIDE-LINES FOR THE ADJUSTMENT
The working of a shock is dependent of different factors like:
•
type of spring (linear of progressive)
•
spring rate
•
preload on the spring
•
nitrogen pressure in the tank
•
viscosity of the oil
•
compression and rebound damping
It is not always easy to ascribe a problem or a certain behavior of the shock to one of
these factors. The working of the shock is determined by the cooperation of these
different factors. The list below just gives you an indication on the consequences on the
changements of these adjustments.
Spring
•
the spring is too hard: it is easy to turn, but the rear wheel is nervous on roughness
•
the spring is too soft: the bike feels oversteering in fast corners
•
a standard spring is mounted on the shock. You can change the spring rate according
to the weight of the rider. Standard spring for rider of ±80 kg.
Preload of the spring
•
set the preload of the spring, depending on the weight, habits and the skill of the
rider
