9.5.3
RockShox suspension fork
9.5.3.1 Rebound too fast
The suspension fork rebounds too quickly,
producing a "pogo stick" effect, where the wheel
lifts from the ground in an uncontrolled way. This
impairs traction and control (blue line).
Figure 247: Suspension fork rebounding too quickly
Solution
Figure 248: Turning the rebound screw damper towards
tortoise symbol
Turn the rebound screw clockwise damper
towards the tortoise symbol.
The rebound speed is decreased (slower
return).

Troubleshooting, fault clearance and repair
Fork head and handlebars are deflected upwards
if the wheel bounces back from the ground. Body
weight may be thrown up and backwards in an
uncontrolled way (green line).
