Tech Tip!
D1 / E1 Models: Externally Adjustable OTT D2 / E2 Models: Internally Adjustable OTT D3 / E3 Models: No OTT Feature
D2 / E2 OTT Setting
Our D1/E1 models come with an externally adjustable OTT. This
is a 5mm allen key adjustment located on the bottom of the
left fork leg. When adjusting the OTT, go by full rotations not by
clicks.
Important: Let the air out of the fork before adjusting OTT!
Our D2/E2 Models come with an internally adjustable OTT. This design provides three settings of OTT which is
determined by the rider’s body weight.
Important: Visit tech.dvosuspension.com to learn how to adjust your OTT setting.

OTT is a DVO Exclusive Performance Feature that delivers amazing traction, comfort & control
matching a wide range of riders weights & skill levels. OTT allows the rider to ne tune the small bump
sensitivity without affecting the mid-stroke or end-stroke.

OTT stands for “Off The Top” and it does just that. Allow you to tune how your fork feels off the top.
OTT gives you the “Best of Both Worlds” for softer initial feel while being rm in the mid-stroke and end
stroke… Run higher air pressures without the harshness.
OTT adjusts the preload on the negative spring inside the air cartridge. The negative spring on your OTT
system is a traditional coil spring. You can preload the spring just like you would on a rear coil shock.
This gives you the ability to ne tune the initial sensitivity without having it affect the mid-stroke or end
stroke.
Higher air pressures allows fast moving riders to skip over bumps and holes but the downside is the
harshness. With the OTT feature, the initial 30mm’s of travel can be independently tuned regardless of
air pressure. Heavier or fast riders can run higher air pressures while still having amazing small bump
sensitivity & traction by simply increasing OTT. Lighter riders who run lower air pressures will use less
OTT allowing use of all the travel without having the fork sack or hammock in the middle of the stroke.
The Best of Both Worlds!

Heavier Riders = More OTT
Lighter Riders = Less OTT
As a general rule of thumb, the heavier or
aggressive rider will use more air pressure &
more OTT. A lighter or less aggressive rider will
use lower air pressures and less OTT.
