9.5.5.4 Excessively hard damping on bumps
When the bike hits a bump, the damper deflects
too slowly and the rear wheel lifts up from the
bump. Traction is reduced (blue line).

Turn compression adjuster anti-clockwise.
The damping and compression hardness is
reduced and the deflection stroke speed is
increased. Sensitivity to small bumps is
increased.

Troubleshooting, fault clearance and repair
Saddle and rider are deflected upwards and
forwards, the rear wheel loses contact with the
ground and control is reduced (green line).
