to the following instruction:
1. remove the valve cap of the positive valve (S8) which is the UPPER valve on
the shock body and mount the shock pump with its adaptor on the valve.
2. pump the recommended pressure into the shock. On the shock body
you will find a table showing the recommended air pressure of the positive
chamber according to the rider’s weight.
3. when you reached the needed pressure remove the pump and put the valve
cap on the valve
4. remove the valve cap of the negative valve (S9) which is the LOWER valve
on the shock body and mount the shock pump with its adaptor on the valve
5. pump the recommended pressure into the shock. On the shock body

SAG
The SAG should be 12.5mm on the shock piston, which means approx. 25% SAG in
Full Travel Position
To check the adjustment, please follow as shown below:
1. Sit on the bike, put your feet on the pedal.
2. check if the arrow of the SAG indicator arrow matches with the 25% indication
on the mudguard.
(In case you want go for a harder set up you could go for 20% SAG, in case you
want to go for a softer set-up you could go for 30% SAG as shown as well on the
indicator)
- If the arrow matches with the SAG percentage indication of your choice
the air pressure is matching to your weight
- If the arrow is at a lower percentage indication then the one of your choice the
air pressure I the positive air chamber is too high and should be carefully reduced
by using the bleed knob of the shock pump until the arrow matches with the SAG
percentage of your choice
- If the arrow is at a higher percentage indication then the one of your choice the
air pressure I the positive air chamber is too low and should be increased by using
the shock pump until the arrow matches with the SAG percentage of your choice
