      Except when “The information you are looking for is unavailable at this time.”
      This is for a 2019 Performance Series Float Trunnion Mount shock. I expect this is it being a custom tune for the bike by the manufacturer, but there isn’t much in the included manuals.

    On 2021 Canyon Neuron 9 SL - if I follow the sag recommendations of this video I basically turn my bike into a fully rigid bike. I guess it very much depends on bike geometry and linkage type. I have to run much more sag to make the suspension actually work.

    When did the 30% sag in the shock and 25% sag in the fork changed?? Most manufacturers even in 2024 recommend this settings. With 15% sag in the fork you'll be bouncing like crazy on the trails :))

  • @archetypex65
    @archetypex65 4 года назад +5

    Glad to see you in that 15% to 25% range rather than that 25% to 30% range. It really depends on the trails you ride. type of bike you ride, rider weight ( in some cases for a very light riders) & more importantly riding style. A good range is typically 15%-20% front. 18%-25% rear.

      @@archetypex65 not only is your post incredibly rude it's also incorrect. Standing much more of your weight is over the front of the bike whereas seated more of your weight is over the shock. On my 150mm bike there is a difference of about 10% sag between standing and seated. Go check for yourself.

    • @archetypex65
      @archetypex65 4 года назад

      You are on the right track because even though you approach the forks setup the same way you will approach tire pressure differently with a hardtail. And tire pressures will vary depending on width of the tire, type of tire, type of Trail and Rider weight. Don't listen to bozos who post here who don't know their ass from their elbow 😂👍 hopefully somebody at Fox will reach out to you to better explain.

    Hey Fox, so I’m a huge suspension nerd and just got a yt tues cf pro race 29 in long and I was wondering how much sag I’d run on that bike. It’s a dh bike so I was thinking 20 front 30 rear? Or should I do 25 front 30 rear? It’s a super progressive bike so I don’t think I’ll need many volume spacers but I was curious with sag.

    Hi,
    I have a fox factory 36 160mm Fit4. I have 120 psi on it. On paper and basic test, the rebound should be at fully open (fastest), which is 14 clicks. However, in this setting, I get a thud sound and feedback whenever I do a wheeL lift. More pronounced on manual than doing a wheelie. As I back out the rebound rate, the thud sound and feedback gets lower as well. At 9 clicks, the issue completely goes away. What can I do to have the fastest rebound but not get that thud sound? Thanks!

    • @danieliuseidukonis7947
      @danieliuseidukonis7947 3 года назад +3

      that's quite a lot of pressure for a 36 (actually it's maximum pressure, 120 PSI) and rebound should be almost fully CLOSED at this pressure. It's because air is progressive and it ramps up hard but "shoots back" very fast so you need to stop this by closing rebound (to make it slower and more controllable).

      You are loosing air as you attach, not as you remove. Just pump up to the required pressure.

    It went together easily in less than an hour. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Make sure the front fork is forward or the pedals will hit the front tire. Tires are both a little soft so it needs air before I ride it. The rear wheel didn't come with a clamp regular bolts hold it on. The front had the clamp. No scratches out of box. Rims are a little off with a slight wobble. They could have spent more time with the spoke tool fixing the run out. So far out of the box I'm happy with it. I did replace the pedals with a nice aftermarket set. After riding it a bit my A$$ is a bit sore so I ordered another seat. Overall I'm nearly 60 and didn't ride a bike in 30 years. I like my new 29" Schwinn. It will be used for casual rides with my friend.

Pace and cadence with pauses ensures the audience is not only hearing spoken word but comprehending what's being said, thus leaving the video with understanding of not only how to do something but why and what else to be aware of. None of which this video inspires, thus I leave this video from the company that produced my product to leave in search of a video that does what I need.
