Thanks.
Pretty easy stuff. The preload is the amount you compress the spring with the adjusting nut/ring. Support the weight of the bike on a stand and back the nut off until it just touches the spring to have zero preload. From that point the more you compress the spring the more preload you have, measured in mm's.
