Figure 132: Measuring the total deflection (rear frame
damper)
7 Attach cable tie if there is no O-ring on the rear
frame damper.
8 Put on your normal cycling clothing, including
baggage.
9 Ask someone to hold the pedelec. Sit on the
pedelec in your usual riding position and
support yourself against an object, such as a
wall or tree.
10 Apply force on the saddle to fully deflect the
rear frame damper gently two or three times.
11 The helper pushes the O-ring or cable tie
downwards against the air chamber seal.
12 Get off the pedelec carefully, ensuring that the
rear frame damper does not deflect.
13 Measure the distance between the air
chamber seal and the O-ring.
This measurement is the sag. The
recommended value is between hard (lowest
value) and soft (highest value).

Table 32: Recommended sag for the rear frame damper
14 The air pressure must be adjusted if the
required sag level is not reached.
Increase the air pressure to reduce the sag.
Decrease the air pressure to increase the sag.
15 If the sag is correct, place the cap on the air
valve (rear frame damper).
16 If you are unable to achieve the required sag,
the suspension fork will need to be adjusted
internally. Contact specialist dealer.
