MEGAWATT CARBON BIKE MANUAL | 2 7
HOW TO SET UP YOUR REAR SUSPENSION SAG
Sag is the amount the rear shock will compress under the rider’s weight while kitted. This is the base setting for the rear
shock to ensure the rear suspension is neither too stiff nor too soft. It’s recommended the Megawatt Carbon’s sag be set
with the rider seated.
Rear shock sag on the Megawatt Carbon should be set to
30% for optimum suspension performance.
To set sag, first slide the red sag ring to the seal of the
shock as shown.
Always set your sag when the bike is on a level surface.
Have another person help steady the bike or use an object
to hold yourself up. Sit on the bike while wearing all of
your normal riding kit.
To add or remove air, remove the rear shock valve cap and
set aside. Screw the shock pump on until the pressure
gauge shows a PSI reading. Now observe the sag indicator
while seated and add or remove air until you achieve 30%
exactly. Do not exceed the stated maximum air pressure
printed on the shock.
