6.0: SERVICING THE REAR SUSPENSION Fig.2: Marin Rear Suspension
If there is less sag than required, fit a shock pump and release air pressure. Conversely if there is greater sag than required, fit the shock pump and increase air pressure. Repeat the ‘sag’ test until the desired displacement is achieved. Rear Suspension Set-up - Rebound Damping: When the damper u nit is being compressed, this is known as the compression stroke. As the suspension unit recovers from compression back towards its full length, this is called the re-bound stroke. All the shocks fitted as standard to the Marin Quad XC 2 bikes have factory set compression damping, and manually adjustable rebound damping. Rebound Damping Adjustment: This adjustment fine-tunes the speed at which the rear wheel returns to its normal ride height after hitting a bump. The adjuster is coloured red and is found on the rear damper unit. An arrow marked slower indicates the direction to turn the dial to slow down the rebound speed of the suspension. To demonstrate the effect of this, turn the adjuster to its slowest setting. Press down on the saddle to compress the suspension, then release the load. The suspension recovers very slowly to its original position. Repeat the above with the adjuster turned to the fastest setting and the difference will be seen immediately the load is released. We recommend the optimum setting is to adjust the re-bound damping to be as slow as possible, but not so slow that the normal ride height is not recovered. On very rough terrain, if the rear of the bike becomes progressively lower as more bumps are hit then the re-bound damping is set too slow. On the other hand if the bike feels choppy and not plush then the re-bound damping is too fast. A bit of trial and error is needed to get the exact setting. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Always stop riding when making adjustments of any kind to the bicycle! Fox Rear Shock Adjustment. Please refer to the relevant Fox Instruction Manual to learn more about the advanced features of your rear shock.
