Suspension
8.5.2 Using the lock-out function
With the lock-out function, you can lock the sus-
pension fork completely, e.g. if you pedal hard and
your progress/cycling comfort is impaired by the
suspension.
Even with the lock-out function activated, the sus-
pension can compress by up to 15 mm when the
road surface is uneven.
The lock-out function is activated/deactivated either with a
rotary knob on the top of the suspension fork or with a con-
trol on the handlebar (depending on model):
f Activate the lock-out function: Turn the rotary knob
clockwise by a quarter turn or use the corresponding
control element.
f Deactivate the lock-out function: Turn the rotary knob
a quarter turn anticlockwise or use the corresponding
control element to deactivate the activated lock-out
function.
8.5.3 Shortening or lengthening the spring travel
To shorten the spring travel:
f Press the "Push" key and keep it pressed.
f Press on the handlebar from above so that the suspen-
sion fork compresses. The deeper you push the suspen-
sion fork into the seat, the shorter the spring travel.
f Release the "Push" button to fix the setting.
To extend the spring travel:
f Press the "Push" key and keep it pressed.
f Hold the front wheel firmly and at the same time pull
the handlebars upwards so that the suspension fork
springs out. The higher you pull the suspension fork out
of your mount, the longer the spring travel becomes.
f Release the "Push" button to fix the setting.
8.6 Maintaining spring-loaded
components
f Make sure that the sliding surfaces and seals of the
suspension are free of dirt.
f Wipe off contamination with a clean cloth, lightly
oiled if necessary.
f After cleaning, apply some lubricant to the sliding
surfaces, e.g. universal oil.
f If necessary, ask the bicycle dealer for advice on
suitable lubricants and care products.
f After lubrication, apply 5× pressure to the
suspension so that it compresses.
f Remove excess lubricant with a clean cloth.
f Have the suspension checked by a bicycle dealer if
there are unusual noises when compressing or releasing
the suspension or if the suspension has no resistance
at all when compressing.
