Setting Sag on FOX Float Air Fork
Proper sag for the fork is 15 - 20% of the full fork travel. Fork sag is similar to setting your shock sag and based on your rider weight in
your neutral riding position. To check your sag follow the same procedures as with shock sag. While on the bike slide the o-ring down to
the dust wiper and gently step off the bike. The distance from the o-ring to the dust wiper can be divided by your fork travel to give you
your sag percentage.
The table below provides Pivot's recommended starting point for fork air pressure to achieve proper sag. Through Pivot's testing, we
have found that for many riders, the Fox recommended pressure is higher and limits the ability to achieve full fork travel. You may need
to lower the pressure if full travel is not reached. In general, we find that riders are running 2-3 pressure settings below the air pressure
recommended for their rider weight by Fox's charts. You can refer to the charts from Fox at www.ridefox.com.
For example, based on the charts from Fox, a 200lb. rider with a Fox Float 36 would want to run 94 psi in their fork. Our recommendation
for most riders at this weight is to run between 86-89 psi., compared to the Fox charts, we have shifted our recommendation two or three
rows up the chart. This means less air pressure for a softer more balanced ride.
Once you have settled on your air pressure follow the corresponding damping setting for your model fork.
