Quick Start Guide
what is PrO-PeDal?
Pro-pedal is a compression tune that
gives the right amount of low-speed compression to filter out
unwanted rider-induced bob without sacrificing critical mid-
and high-speed damping. No flushing through your travel,
no wasted setup time, and no energy-sucking suspension
movement. Just super efficient pedaling performance ready
for hits of any size.
saG
Once you have set your baseline air pressure you need to
measure the sag. To measure the sag slide the travel indicator
(O-Ring) up against the shock body. With a friend supporting the bike, sit
on the saddle (do not bounce) and allow your body weight to compress
the shock. Once you have compressed the shock, get off the bike and
measure the distance between the shock body and the new position of the
travel indicator (O-Ring). This is your sag. Refer to the guide below for the
percentage of sag equivalents for the measurement recorded.

rebOunD
The rebound adjustment has a 22 click range. As a general
rule, adjustments that are too fast (counter-clockwise) will produce a
springy ride with excessive kick-up of the rear end. Adjustments that are
too slow (clockwise) will cause packing of the rear wheel and give the bike
a sluggish feel.
slower rebound - turn the knob clockwise
faster rebound- turn the knob counter-clockwise
bOttOm-Out resistanCe
The bottom-out adjuster has three
full turns of adjustment. This adjustment controls the bottom out
resistance of the shock, or the compression on the final part of the shock’s
stroke. If you feel like you are bottoming-out the shock on big hits, you can
minimize this sensation by increasing the bottom-out resistance.
more resistance- clockwise rotation
less resistance- counter-clockwise rotation
The adjuster can be turned by hand or with a 4mm allen key. The allen key
should be placed into one of the holes on the perimeter of the adjuster.
PrO-PeDal
The pro-pedal adjustment has a min/max adjustment.
The pro-pedal damping affects the first half of stroke where most
rider induced bob occurs.
more Damping - clockwise rotation
less Damping - counter-clockwise rotation
