PFP Adjustment and Bottoming Control

[nick H]

I rode with them at 8 in the rocks and it was a touch stiff ha ha I messed up on adjusting them thought it was 2 turns from all the way in not from all the way out
Wonder why everyone else I spoke to only came up with 3 turns of adjustment

So your setting of 8 turns out was actually 2 turns in then, which is the stock setting. For rocks I like a softer initial travel (less preload) but not a soft sloppy fork either. I think that the stock main spring preload plus minimum PFP is just a bit too much total. Why jack the main springs up 5mm and only work the first turn or two of a ten turn PFP adjustment? Less main preload should allow more useful range of PFP adjustment. The math and the bounce test in the shop agree, we'll see if the trail does too.

no i was all the way in(clockwise) and went 2 turns out this is the wrong way to set it your supposed to be 2 turns in from all the way out so basically it was as stiff as possible.
at least this is how my tuner told me how to do it
