If necessary, measure and set sag again and repeat this adjustment. if your measured sag value is less than the table sag value, screw on the pump ﬁtting, note the current air pressure setting and depress the black bleed-valve to reduce the gauge pressure by 5 psi.

If your measured sag value doesn't match the table value, add or release air pressure in 5 PSI increments:.

Test the proper operation of your front and rear brakesĪnd set sag, and compare your result to the sag setting shown in the Air Spring Setting Guidelines table.

Check that all brake cables or hoses are properly.

Shock should not be used if any of the exterior parts appear to be damaged.

Inspect the entire exterior of your shock.

Do not use a high pressure washer on your shock. Note:Do not use any solvents or de-greasers, as these products can damage the shock's exterior finish or its anodized parts.ĭo not spray water directly on the seal/shock body junction.

Clean the outside of your shock with only mild soap and water,.

This is an indication that the air sleeve should be re-lubricated. If this residual air sleeve lubricant is not present, There may be a small amount of air sleeve lubricant residue on the body.

For example, use PROPEDALfor riding to the top of the mountain, and then switch to OPEN for the descent.To determine which ProPedal position is betterfor your condition and situation, pedal the bicycle and monitor the shockmovement.

Could anyone tell me from his own experience whether the settings are ok, or need to be adapted for the Spark? Moreover, I used the RS mounting hardware 6.22,2mm but there is still a little side play on the shock with screws fully tightened, is this ok? I reckon notGetting the right air pressure looks to be quite tricky too, I tried 190 psi for my 85 kg, but after some posts here, I will probably end up a bit higher for a 9,5 mm sag. Hi guys, I just got a new 2012 Fox RP23 shock with Boost Valve and Adaptive logic (Rebound tune M, Velocity tune M, Boost Valve tune 200) and installed it on my Spark.
