5.4 SAG
The SAG corresponds to the forks sinking due to the rider’s weight.
How to measure SAG
In order to measure the SAG, you only need to carry out the following steps:
• On the leg portion of the fork, measure the distance between the lower crown and the dust seal
(see A in Picture 12). Note this value as “H1”
• While sitting on the bike, repeat the measurement (see B in Picture 12). Note this value as “H2”.

SAG = H1 - H2
How to find the best SAG
The best SAG for Cross-country forks is 15 – 20 %, and 25 – 30% for Freeride forks.
In order to calculate the best SAG for your own fork, you will need to make the following calculation:
SAG=T x S (T = total travel; S = suggested sinking percentage).
