COIL SPRUNG FORKS

Springs on these types of forks are set at the factory. Most have a simple preload adjuster that allows the rider to make the fork firmer or softer depending on rider weight. The heavier the rider, the firmer

the spring setting should be. If with no preload you are not achieving the recommended sag then a softer spring is needed and if with maximum preload you are achieving too much sag then a harder spring is needed.

To check rebound, turn the rebound damping knob (if applicable) counter clockwise until it stops. With full body weight, push down on the fork forcefully with the front brake on and watch (and feel) how the fork rebounds. Turn the rebound damping knob clockwise until the fork rebounds slightly slower than with no damping (the heavier the rider, the more damping will be required).
