But I overstroke under stroke every bike and shock I have, the real reason I say no is it can make the front end feel akwardly tall. Short travel bikes can be senstive, when I slap a 20 mil over fork on my already 180 bike it is not such a change, I put a 180 fork on a 160 bike felt weird

      3 tokens. Full HBO 1-2 clicks of both hsc and lsc. Has to have matching compression adjustments, same number of clicks high and low. HBO and rebound can adjust independently. Sag go right under 30%. If it’s a levo specific shock it comes with tokens in it. If not you need to add them in. HBO set off your skill level, but your weight full on is good. If you’re stuck on dead slow rebound add in the compression. The goal of the compression is to add in faster rebound notthkng else. Working on setup video now. Super deluxe coil. It’s not far off your shock. Most important is to match the compression adjustment 1 click low means 1 click high Do anything you can to get rebound faster. The only thing you can do to get rebound faster is adding in compression Comment back if you get it dialed

    My wife has had the Como 4.0 for 2.5 years now and we have nothing but problems. So much money for such a bad bike. Starting with the brakes. She is the only one at the traffic lights with rain squeaking brakes. This seems to be normal with disc brakes. I think it's outrageous for €4000. In addition, the paint quality is typically American. One small tap on it and the paint will crack off. So now you see the bare metal in 7 spots. I can drop my 10-year-old bike on the ground or hit it with a hammer. Even then, you won't see any bare metal but just a little scratch. And the biggest problem: engine failure. There's nothing they can do about this either (the repairman is taking the easy way out) They can't find anything. Just while driving, the engine cuts out with the message engine failure. And of course, that happens when you are 30km from your car with a bike carrier. And now for the last problem. The battery is fully charged, which can be seen from the green led, but this morning the Mastermind TCD stays grey for 5 seconds, and now stays black. I took the battery out, and it gives me 4 green leds, so the battery must be OK. Checked the cables and charging connector. Also the connector on the battery. My wife is now on my 10 year old Stella electric bike again, which never fails. Oh yes, forgot to say. The Como 4.0 does not have puncture prove tires.

    Funny, can’t say I agree with anything you have said. Don’t know if it’s the bike or what, but I just don’t gell with fox. All my forks and shocks are all standard tunes. I’m now on factory 38 and x2 and miss my rockshock setups. Maybe different skill sets suite different levels or even ride preference. Not saying anything is wrong with fox, but I personally just don’t like the feeling.

      @@OtterMTBtech Spectral Mullet, Fox had 36 performance elite, cant remember the rebound, pretty sure I was either 1 or 2 clicks off the recommended, 2 tokens, but tried different settings generally used 22% sag. Anything under 15-20 I found too stiff. DPX 2 had maximum tokens. had to run the shock at 20% SAG. 25-30 was soft, but went through the mid stroke way to easy, I always assumed a better compression tune was needed. For my slash, I went between a couple of different configurations, some permanent and some trialling when blowing shocks or upgrading from Lyric. I have always used friends who are good at setting up Fox. Im 100kgs. for RockShox, I would typically aim at 18% sag in the front, and depending on the terrain, one click or rebound adjustment, for the rear, it would be 25 to 30%, higher +1 click on HBO. My new Reign is 3 tokens in the 38's and 2 tokens in the X2. Rebound is 1 click slower in the 38 and 1 click higher in X2. highspeed rebound is recommended for both. I know I didn't talk about the compression. I would also like to mention, I ended up getting a Zeb Select and upgraded the damper to 3.0 with buttercups. It was never as good as my Zeb Ultimate in the spectral. After analysis it was the bushes that needed burnishing. Made the fork absolutely buttery like my boxxers. Fox always feel smooth on the initial stroke, but just harsh unless I run 30% in the front and 35% in the rear

  • @Bjoern_the_Baer
    @Bjoern_the_Baer 8 днів тому

    The amount of shims doesn't determine whether or not a shock will ride good. My fork has only 3 shims inside it at the moment and it rides better than anything I have ever had before. Chassis stiffness is much more important than the shimstack. Spring weight is also much more important than the shimstack. The shimstack comes into play when you have the spring set up correctly, the chassis is stiff enough to not flex and bend under load (more friction and more scratching). If your spring is off you don't need to tune the shimstack, and most riders won't feel the difference anyways. I'm riding a set of intend bandit and hover on my bike at the moment, best setup money can buy for highspeed floating!
