The shocks on your Giant dual suspension bicycle can be adjusted to meet your riding style and
weight. This booklet is intended as a quick-start guide to help you get started. It may take a few
rides to find your preferred settings.
Platform Valve
On bikes equipped with a Stable Platform Valve (SPV) rear shock, you can adjust the bike’s
pedaling efficiency by increasing the air pressure in the SPV air cartridge. Increasing the air
pressure will resist pedal-induced bobbing. Decreasing the air pressure will make the suspen

sion more sensitive to small bump forces. Please refer to the individual shock manufacturer’s
technical manual for specific information on how to adjust your SPV shock.
Sag
All Giant dual suspension bikes except the No Resonance System (NRS) rely on sag for their
suspensions to work efficiently. Please take a few moments to read through this guide to
understand sag as it applies to your bicycle (pgs. 11, 20). Setting your bike’s sag will greatly
enhance your riding experience and the performance of your bicycle.
