I'll check again as I may have been imagining but when I was setting the headset pre-load there was a very slight knock which I wasn't sure if it was the brake pads, fork bushings, or fork top out.
I've got the same "knock" as the fork tops out. after some investigating it seems it could be some slick honey/butter whatever clogging up the pressure equalization dimple between the positive and negative air chambers. Solution is said to be removal of the lowers and the air piston and wiping away any excess in the dimple, then rebuild. Haven't tried this yet but will see if I get time too in the next couple of weeks to see if it solves the problem.
teK said:In the first ride I was blowing through travel quite easily and there was a distinct lack of pop off jumps. After fitting 3 rings (maximum limit is 7), increasing LSR by 1 click (8 clicks from full open), and maintaining the same sag it feels much better and am using just over 90% of travel. Will do some bracketing soon and see if I can speed up LSR a bit more.
Did the same added 3 bands and set the rebound to 4 clicks from fast and it pops so much better without kicking me over the bars.
Love these bikes BTW couldn't be more stoked with the way it rides up and down.
