I'm playing with one on a '96 SC Heckler. Can anybody explain the differences between 3-way, 4-way, and 6-way? I've done a couple of hours searching, including a few threads here, but haven't found a real explanation.
I was going to ask how to set the thing up too, but finally found a good explanation for a 3-way setup on a 10 year old forum post, which seemed to work a treat on the 4-way. It's holding air, not leaking oil, sitting right on 25% sag when I sit on the bike
Also, is there a secret to unscrewing the shock pump without letting air escape? I had to overfill to allow for the loss on disconnection. Took a few attempts to get it right.
This is my first experience with bicycle shock absorbers. Be kind. Or brutal. We're swinging 4 ways.
Link to the post that explains setup better than anything I found in the Manitou archives.
