Re: Suspension set-up
This is a brilliant question.
The traditional relationship between static and dynamic sag is all based forks and traditional swingarms. I have wondered on many occasions if the tele lever / paralever set up changes those relationships. Is it still 25-40mm?
I am especially interested right now. My shocks were built for 80kg rider and gear, since then I have lost 10 kg and reduced the length by 25 mm to drop the bike. With a full tank it's reasonable but empty things are harsh and bouncy. The shocks are due for their second rebuild and I'm wondering if it might be time for new ones. They are Hyper pros. When they were first installed it was like riding a magnetic armchair. Not so much now.
