Got a spanner wrench , turn clockwise to compress and stiffen the ride. Counter clockwise to decompress the springs and soften the ride. Have it set on 3 and the ride is a little choppy. Take my son for a ride who is 150 lbs. I,m 160 and the ride got really cushy. Where should it be set at for my weight when I,m the only one on the bike?
Zip around the block a few times hit a pothole or two and do what you need! I never touch mine. You can turn those fatbob shocks by hand. Important thing is to make sure you have enough air pressure.Check once a week I have 36 & 36 with a passengre should be 3 to 5 extra lbs in the rear tire depending on the weight of the companion!
I'm 225 and with the Intiminators in the forks, I ride with the shocks on 1 as 2 is too bumpy for solo, especially if you hit a bump in the twisties. I think the intiminators change the whole dynamic as w/o them I used to have the shocks on 2.
Sorry guys, please don't jump down my throat...but just to clarify...the higher the # setting, the more weight required to compress the shock? And the more weight needed to compress the shock will make for a "stiffer" "bumpier" ride if the rider weight remains constant? Is that correct?
