How To Set Up Rockshox Recon

• #1

Trying to set my stupor and forks on my 2022 Turbo Levo comp, and even on Specialized site it doesn't make sense (to me). I've got the sag blindside on, but it says for the shock 2 clicks of rebound, is there a pinch for the shock? Or is that the lock out leaver?

Forks, it'due south says I need 6 clicks of compression only there is only v and no mention of rebound.... whatever ideas?

Thanks

again tho, no mention of pinch.... and its likewise very unlike to the specialized result. if i was to use this guide my sag would be out and too soft.

Do yourself a favor and drop those guides and setup your suspension based on your personal preferences. Guides are simply guides and not 2 riders prefer the same setup.

Do yourself a favor and driblet those guides and setup your pause based on your personal preferences. Guides are simply guides and not ii riders prefer the aforementioned setup.

i will be once i tin can get out and ride just, the specialized guide has the sag bang on.... Is in that location a compression on the rear tho and why practise they say 6 clicks of pinch on the forks when in that location only five?

Trying to gear up up my daze and forks on my 2022 Turbo Levo comp, and even on Specialized site it doesn't make sense (to me). I've got the sag blindside on, but it says for the daze 2 clicks of rebound, is there a compression for the shock? Or is that the lock out leaver?

Forks, it's says I demand six clicks of pinch but at that place is simply 5 and no mention of rebound.... any ideas?

Thank you

Can you show us what you are reading...it does audio to me that you are confusing compression with rebound.
On the fork if y'all have the sag set OK than the rebound is on the bottom of the RH fork leg. Anti clockwise for the fastest rebound...…...clockwise for the slowest...…….and there are a bout 15 clicks from memory. I take mine fix 6 clicks clockwise from the fully anti clockwise position. The compression adjuster is on the top of the right hand fork leg and has 5 positions. Mine is fully open up ( fully anti clockwise) all the time.
On the stupor the lever is the compression setting. It has only 2 positions..open and closed....once again I take mine open all the time. Rebound is the blue dial. Same every bit the fork...fully anticlockwise is fast.....fully clockwise is deadening...and there are several clicks between the ii extremes. Mine is set up half dozen clockwise from the fully anti clockwise position.

Equally higher up I have never experienced whatsoever need to set fork or stupor compression at anything other than open up.
Rebound settings for fork and daze are downwards to how y'all want the bike to feel on the type of terrain you ride and the typical recommended method for the fork is to at least set sufficient rebound to stop the front end skipping. That done past using your weight to compress the fork via the bars and of a sudden removing that weight, and noting whether or non the tyre bounces off the runway surface.....increase rebound until it does not. A method to fix Rebound for the shock is to ride sitting slowly off a roadside kerb and become someone else to watch the shock movement. Shock pinch and release, then settling rather than oscillating over again is the recommended fastest rebound setting. Whether or not you want information technology a trivial slower than that is up to y'all just if you set is likewise boring the shock could stack ( not have time to recover from one compression before it is compressed again).

Off-white enough. I slowed mine down a scrap because information technology was popping on the ramps of the downhill runs I practise.

I have done 220 miles on my Comp and accept probably changed my suspdnsion settings 3 times to the betoken that I now feel the bicycle is working well. What seems to exist working for me is merely short of 35% fork sag with fairly fast rebound....faster than the shock. Slightly less sag on the shock and rebound slower than the fork. The break feels plush and I just most use full travel on both on my normal trails. I have the original tyres run with tubes 26 forepart 28 rear. Overall I am given the impression information technology is like shooting fish in a barrel to set up the bike up besides difficult. I am 77kg /182cm so possibly lighter than boilerplate.
