Rear Shock; Changing Travel - Cannondale 120027.PDF Owner's Manual Supplement

rear shock

changing travel

The Perp has two travel positions: 180mm and 200mm. Travel is changed by moving
the top tube pivot mounting point of the shock link arms and the front shock mount hole
position. See next page. There are only two travel positions and you can not use other
hole combinations. The reservoir position can be changed by rotating the shock without
disconnecting the shock linkage. You will have to remove the top tube pivot and the front
shock bolt and lower the swingarm to do it.

WARNING
KEEP YOUR HANDS AND FINGERS OUT OF PINCH POINTS. Your fingers or hands can be
pinched or crushed if they are caught between the swingarm, linkage, tire, or frame when
the rear shock is released.
CAUTION
TO PREVENT SERIOUS FRAME DAMAGE:
1. Make sure the rear shock is compatible with your frame. Ensure that the shock
eyelet-to-eyelet length stroke length match the information in the specifications
section of this manual.
2. Make sure the physical shape of the rear shock (including all reservoir and
adjustments features) will not cause interference with or contact the frame, frame
mounting points, or the swingarm at any point in the full suspension travel. See our
website TECH CENTER (http://www.cannondale.com/bikes/tech/) for more on how
to mount the OEM shocks for your bike.
3. Do not alter or modify the frame/swingarm in an attempt to mount a rear shock.
