on the swing arm.
SET-UP
Steps to follow :
1- Sit on the bike, with your feet on the pedals and in riding position. (Leaning with your elbow on the wall helps).
2- Once you are balanced, the indicator should point to the equilibrium point:
- If the indicator is pointed between « zero » and « min », you need to reduce the pressure.
- If the indicator is pointed between « zero » and « max », you need to increase the pressure. A high-pressure
pump is recommended for this step.
Warning : Never exceed 200 psi or 14 bars, and do not allow any foreign objects to enter while you are
adjusting.
to check your setting, you can slightly bounce while you are on the saddle and verify that the indicator always
returns to the equilibrium point. You can also ride on flat ground to check that the indicator stays at the
equilibrium point. If you do this, beware of oncoming traffic!
