Shock Damping Adjustments (X xc
Models)
Low Speed Compression Damping
Low speed compression damping con-
trols how the shock absorber reacts to
a low suspension velocity (slow com-
pression strokes, in most cases when
riding at lower speeds).

LOW SPEED COMPRESSION DAMPING
(USE A SCREWDRIVER)
1. Adjustment screw
2. Increases damping (stiffer)
3. Decreases damping (softer)
Turn adjuster clockwise (H) to increase
shock damping action (stiffer).
Turn adjuster counterclockwise (S)
to decrease shock damping action
(softer).

High Speed Compression Damping
High speed compression damping
controls how the shock absorber re-
acts to a high suspension velocity
(quick compression strokes, in most
cases when riding at higher speeds).
