SHOCK SETUP
SETTING SAG
Status Sag (%/mm): 30-35% / 21-24mm
Proper sag should be achieved with one turn of preload on the spring. More then two turns
of preload will require a higher spring rate or not enough sag will require a softer spring rate.
See spring rate chart below for additional information or refer to the shock manual.
SETTING REBOUND
Rebound damping (red knob) controls the rate at which the shock returns after compression.
Clockwise for slower rebound (slow speed, bigger hits).
Counter-clockwise for faster rebound (higher speeds, small bumps, more traction).
SETTING COMPRESSION
VAN RC: Low-speed compression damping (small blue knob) controls slower
suspension movement, which helps in pedaling efficiency and bike attitude.
Clockwise for a firmer platform and more efficient pedaling, greater resistance to
small and medium bumps, more harshness.
Counter-clockwise for a more active, supple reaction to terrain, less efficient
pedaling, less harshness.
Turn the compression adjuster knob to full firm and ride your bike for a while, then
gradually reduce compression until it starts to feel too soft / active for the terrain. Gradually
increase compression until the optimal setting is found for the terrain and riding style.
