Adding / Removing Apt Volume Spacers - DT SWISS F 535 ONE Technical Manual

6. ADDING / REMOVING APT VOLUME SPACERS

6.1 OVERVIEW / FUNCTION
The APT (Adaptable Progression Tune) system allows the rider to adjust the progression of the air
spring curve by adding or removing volume spacers in the fork's air chamber.
The fork is delivered with two mounted volume spacers. A further volume spacer is included for
personal adjustment.

-2 SETTING: COMFORTABLE LINEAR
In this setting, without spacers, the suspension fork has a linear spring curve across the entire
stroke and is barely progressive at the end of the travel. It is suitable for moderate off-road use by
comfort-oriented riders.
-1 SETTING: RATHER COMFORTABLE, RATHER LINEAR
More ambitious riders looking for a rather comfortable setting use the setting with a single APT
spacer. This offers a spring curve with a low progression for a smooth ride feel.
STOCK-SETTING: RATHER PROGRESSIVE
The stock setting of the forks has two APT spacers. This setting results in a rather progressive
spring curve that gives more experienced riders the support they are looking for with their active
riding style.
+ 1 SETTING: VERY PROGRESSIVE
When three APT spacers are used, the fork gets progressive and offers a direct ride feel. That
makes this setting suitable for strong riders with an aggressive riding style.
