3.14.2 Rebound damping
Rebound damping describes the speed at which a spring expands. To
adjust the rebound damping, rotate the red setting wheel on the underside
of the fork to the open position (= greater spring expansion speed) or to
the closed position (= lower spring expansion speed).
3.14.3 Lockout system
If your suspension forks are tted with a
lockout system, it is possible to lock the
suspension. There are some riding situ-
ations where that can be useful: for ex-
ample, if you are riding up a hill or if
you are standing up from the saddle
when accelerating. To switch the sus-
pension to xed, turn the rotary control
on the right-hand side of the fork to
‘LOCK’ (or alternatively: $).
To reactivate the suspension, turn the
control to the ‘OPEN’ position.

DANGER
Do not ride over rough terrain with the suspension locked. It can
damage the suspension forks. A broken fork could cause you to fall o
and seriously injure yourself.
3.13.5 Tyres
DANGER
Donoteitheroverinateorunderinatethetyres. If the air pressure
is too high, this could lead to a worst-case scenario of the tyres
bursting and you could fall. On the other hand, if the air pressure
is constantly too low, the tyre can wear prematurely. The maximum
permissible pressure is marked on the side of the tyre in bar and psi
(pounds per square inch). You can measure the tyre pressure yourself
by using a tyre gauge. Alternatively, you can contact your cycle dealer.

3.14.1 Compression rate
The compression rate refers to the speed
at which a spring is compressed. To
adjust the compression rate, move the
rotary controller towards - (= greater
compression rate) or + (= lower
compression rate).
