Table 28: Filling pressure table for Suntour air forks
 Measure the distance between the crown and
the dust wiper of the fork. This distance is the
total deflection of the fork.
 Push a temporarily attached cable tie
downward against the dust wiper of the fork.
 Put on your usual bicycling clothing, including
luggage.
 Sit on the pedelec in your usual riding position
and support yourself (e.g. against a wall or
tree).
 Get off the pedelec without allowing it to
deflect.
 Measure the distance between the dust wiper
and the cable tie. This dimension is the sag.
The sag value should be between 15% (hard)
and 30% (soft) of the total fork deflection.
 Increase or reduce the air pressure until you
have reached the desired sag.
 Once the sag is correct, re-tighten the blue air
cover cap clockwise.
 If you cannot achieve the desired sag, you may
need to make an internal adjustment. For this
purpose, contact your specialist dealer.
