Rear Race Sag? (Prepare to have your mind blown...)

[motopsycho87]

Bike feels lovely with the current settings, copes really well in the mud now and much much easier to loft the front wheel over stuff. No vague steering yet, and its allowed me to go out 2 clickers of compression on the front, feels extra plush, perfect for tight woods and small jumps etc.

So I would definitely say, get your 35/100 figure on the spring right first, anything after that ignore static sag completely!

Static sag also allows the rear wheel to fall back further when the ground falls away. We all think about absorbing and tracking bumps, but a lot of people over see the negative contour of the ground. The suspension works in both directions.

I 100% agree with you, I'm just stating that getting the Static Sag set at the optimal 100 race sag, then adjusting race sag after to get the characteristics you require, has worked very well for me!
