Title: suspension tuning
Post by: ambvlnt1 on January 11, 2005, 03:31:24 PM

What do the top and bottom clickers adjust on the shock and forks? How do you know which way to adjust? If the back end hops around in the whoops, what do you adjust and how much?

Forks: top=rebound, bottom=compression
Shock: Bottom=rebound, top=comp
Could be either too much rebound, or not enough. My guess would be to add rebound to the rear shock. It could be packing out however, which would be too much rebound. time to tinker..
