Suspension Setup
Rear Shock Setup
- Recommended Sag = 30%/15mm
- Step 1: Set correct pressure in the rear shock.
- Step 2: Sit on the bike and cycle the suspension (*with correct riding gear).
- Step 3: Reset O-ring and sit on the bike, DO NOT BOUNCE, carefully step off.
- Step 4: Measure sag (from o-ring to seal of shock), If it does not match the bike’s recommended sag in millimeters repeat the process.
- Step 5: Adjust rebound setting to ensure proper control.
Fork Setup
- Marin recommends that all bike's front and rear suspension feel balanced
- Step 1: After the rear sag is set follow the recommended pressure from the fork manufacturer.
- Step 2: Bounce evenly up and down on the bike, cycling the suspension up and down to make sure both front and rear suspension feel balanced, if the front does not match the rear add or release pressure.
- Step 3: Once the bike feels balanced adjust the rebound damping to ensure proper control.
