I'm now running 80 psi, and I removed the lone volume spacer because I'm not getting anywhere near full travel (I still have more than 35mm of travel left after riding chunk but not doing any drops). Fork had a swishing sound I thought was damper but that went away after I cleaned up so looks like it was grease getting sucked through transfer port. Do they fail to ever do QC. Get Started Tuning.

i dont do jumps. Added a luftkappe - like butter off the top and loads of mid stroke - well worth it.

Does make the fork ramp up even with no spacers so only really ideal if you run 1 or more spacers right now.
Smooth and supple over trail chatter but still ramps up smoothly on bigger hits.
Like a completely different fork. Fork had a swishing sound I thought was damper but that went away after I cleaned up so looks like it was grease getting sucked through transfer port. I'm on the older RC2 damper, not the newer Grip2, so not sure if there are tricks involved in the setup for that (though at least in the press everyone's gaga over it so presumably it can be suitably configured). Fox’s 36 Factory uses a more adjustable and potentially suppler GRIP2 unit. I ride some pretty good chunk/gnar and the fork is pretty stiff. The topcap holds the volume spacers. I'll put the fork back on my bike once I install that and we'll see if it helps or I possibly move on to the new Lyric.If jackasses could fly this place would be an airport.They say nothing is wrong and but at least they upgraded the air spring to the 2019 model as I inquired, but they never contacted me about anything.I'm used to dealing with equalizing chambers on reservoir shocks, so having to equalize the fork after reassembly didn't come as a surprise to me.Pump it up partially, compress until you feel/hear it equalize, pump it up some more, compress, etc.
Shock tuning can be extremely rewarding, with a little work you can achieve tremendous improvements in ride comfort and performance. Warning: Be careful! just mild drops/ roots.Here's a pretty good tutorial on the Grip2 settings. Holy s**t!

Never noticed this before today - about 3 months of riding. Der Negativfederweg ist der Weg den Ihre Federung durch Ultra buttery and smooth. Tried every possible combo of pressure/volume spacers/damping settings I could think of. That being said, I'm only using like 65% of the travel. At 165 lbs, I had been previously running at 62 psi, 0 tokens, HSC fully open and LSC like 3 clicks from open. It tops out with a clunk as it reaches full extension. 25% sag did not fix anything.
0000020595 00000 n 0000006571 00000 n Its easier on a fork because you're talking about <100 PSI usually, compared to 200-250 on a shock.I would have liked to discuss how a 220# rider like myself only has one 1 token in it, has HSC/LSC full open with recommended 96-100 psi for 20% sag, and still feels harsh. Was constantly getting bounced off small trail obstacles.
LolHad exactly the same issue.
