9.1.14.4 Excessively hard damping on bumps
When the bike hits a bump, the fork deflects too
slowly and the wheel lifts up from the bump.
Traction decreases when the wheel no longer
touches the ground.
The headset and handlebars are deflected
upwards significantly, which can impair control.

Solution
Figure 253: Adjust the compression adjuster so that it is
softer
Turn compression adjuster anti-clockwise.
The damping and compression hardness is
reduced and the deflection stroke speed is
increased. Sensitivity to small bumps is
increased.
