      If you have cable brakes, remove the inner cables from the brake housings and check for dirt and kinks. If the cable is kinked, you will need to replace it with a special tandem cable (standard cables are too short).

      Change this setting by twisting the preload knobs on the forks (not present on all models) or by twisting the spring on the rear shock so that the spring extends on the shaft.

      As strange as it sounds, you may need to increase suspension preload to make the system work properly. If this does not work, visit a good bike store and ask them; you may need a new spring in your suspension units that better suits your weight.
