3. Position your bicycle next to a wall so that you can sit on the bike with both feet on the pedals while steadying yourself with one arm. Gently sit on the saddle without bouncing. Have a partner measure the eye-to-eye distance while you are seated on the bike (figure 1). Dismount.

4.Subtract the weighted eye-to-eye distance from the un-weighted eye-to-eye distance to determine sag. See Sag Recommendations charts for sag distances.

5.For general purpose riding, the shock should compress approximately one quarter of its travel (please refer to the Sag Recommendations charts for specific recommendations for your frame). Turn the shock’s tension collar clockwise to increase spring tension/decrease shock sag.
