10.2.8.4 Excessively hard damping on bumps
When the bike hits a bump, the fork deflects too
slowly and the wheel lifts up from the bump.
Traction decreases when the wheel no longer
touches the ground.

Troubleshooting, fault clearance and repair
The headset and handlebars are deflected
upwards significantly, which can impair control.
 The damping and compression hardness
reduces and the deflection stroke speed is
reduced. Sensitivity to small bumps is
increased.
