Post subject: | Setting front and rear sag |
Front fork is a Pike with solo air. According to the chart on the fork, my weight range equals 75 to 85psi to get 30% sag. It turns out I need 70psi. I'm setting the from sag by sitting on the bike, leaning against a wall or in between a door frame, standing on the pedals and getting into the attack position, ie, weight on the bars. I don't bother both bouncing up and down or anything. Not sure if this is correct or why I need less air than on the chart? Front sag is being set with the rebound damper fully open. Rear shock is a CC DB Inline CS. I'm setting sag to 17mm as suggested on the CC base tune guide. I do this by sitting on the bike with the dropper post fully up. Leaning against a wall with my elbow, sitting on the saddle and taking my feet off the pedals, hence putting as much weight onto the saddle as possible. Is this method correct? |
