ADJUSTING THE REAR SHOCK
Check the movement of your rear shock by releasing all air and moving the swing arm through its
complete stroke. Make sure that there is sufficient clearance between the rear shock and all other
components. Also, keep in mind to check the clearance between your rear shock and a lowered seat
post. Make sure the shock does not hit against the seat post in any position.
Tighten the screws by the frame’s manufacturer’s specifications.
Remember that these are the starting points and adjustments will vary based on rider ability, trail
conditions, frame design, and personal preference. After setting up your rear shock, check your sag to
make sure that you are within the recommended sag settings. The SAG is a value expressed as a
percentage and defines the length of displacement of the stanchions about the fork or shock body,
caused by your body weight when you are sitting on the bike.
The process to set the SAG on your shock is; that you simply need to follow these steps:
● Place the rubber O-ring against the shock’s body.
● Sit on the bike in a normal position and wear your usual riding kit (helmet, bag, and
accessories…). You can lean against a wall in order to avoid any sudden movements on the
bike. you're looking for that rubber ring to be about a third of the way along that stroke. If it's any
further down, that means your shock's too soft. So you're going to want to put a bit of air in it.
Same the other way round. If that's too hard, you're not getting enough sag. So 30% tends to
be a really good, all-around setup so that your shocks can be used in all that travel.
● Step off your bike gently to avoid a harsh movement which you can see sag adjustment fixed.
ATTENTION:
If your fork is not equipped with a rubber O-ring that you can use to see the SAG position, you can
place a plastic zip tie on the fork stanchion which will carry out the same function.
