Rear Shock Setup; Warranty - Santa Cruz Bicycles Superlight Owner's Manual

12.
MAXIMUM FORK TRAVEL
Your Juliana Superlight or Superlight frame was designed to be used with a fork measuring up to 120mm of
travel. When considering replacement of the fork that originally came equipped on your bike, it is important
not to exceed this maximum travel measurement.
WARNING: The Superlight and Juliana Superlight frames are compatible with forks of 120mm of travel or less.
!
Installing a fork with more travel can compromise the integrity of your frame and could lead to a potentially
hazardous situation which, if not avoided, can result in serious injury or death.
REAR SHOCK SET-UP
Sag: Sag is the amount a shock compresses when a rider (wearing full riding gear) mounts a bike in a normal
riding position with weight distributed to saddle, pedals and handlebars. Measuring sag is important for your
suspension to work properly and can be accomplished in one of two ways.
1) If your shock is equipped with an o-ring on the shock shaft, slide the o-ring up against the scraper lip of the
air sleeve. Mount the bike taking care not to bounce on the pedals or saddle. Dismount the bike and measure
the distance (or sag) from the scraper lip to the o-ring.
2) Before mounting the bike, measure the distance from the center of the shock mount bolt that attaches your
shock to the front triangle to the center of the shock mount bolt that attaches your shock to the swingarm
(known as eye-to-eye). Mount the bike taking care not to bounce on the pedals or saddle. While on the bike,
ask a friend to take another measurement of the eye-to-eye. Subtracting the value obtained in the second
measurement from the first will determine sag.
Please refer to the Santa Cruz setup guide that came with your frame for the specific settings. Please keep
in mind that the values in this chart are designed as a starting point only. Modifications to these settings
could be made during ride testing on the trail.
Rebound: Rebound is the rate at which the shock returns after is has been compressed. Rebound setting
vary from rider to rider and change with rider weight, riding style and trail conditions. Typically riders will
set rebound slower for lower speed bigger hits and faster for higher speed smaller bumps. A good rule
of thumb is that rebound should be as fast as possible without kicking back and pushing the rider off
the saddle.
CAUTION: Please refer to the manufacturer's owners manual for the particular fork or shock that came
!
equipped on your bicycle for specific suspension settings and adjustments.
