Adjustments:
Threaded Spring Preload: Lets the rider fine-tune the initial force applied on the springs and precisely balance the weight distribution across the front and rear wheels while setting up the ride height (ground or chassis clearance) and to lower or raise the vehicle to adapt to various situations or to suit your personal preference. Turn the preload adjustment ring clockwise (from top of the shock) to increase preload and raise the vehicle or turn counter-clockwise to reduce preload and lower the vehicle.
Compression: Allows fine-tuning of the damping resistance when the shock is being compressed. This adjustment controls body roll when cornering rear-end squatting under hard acceleration front-end diving when braking riding over whoops at moderate speed undulations and elevation changes in the terrain. Turn the knob clockwise to increase damping resistance therefore making the suspension stiffer or turn counter-clockwise to reduce damping resistance therefore making the suspension softer.
Rebound (REAR ONLY): Controls the speed at which the shock absorber returns to its fully extended position after being compressed from an impact keeping the wheels on the ground for maximum traction and reducing the bucking effect caused by the spring pressure pushing back after an impact. Turn the adjuster clockwise to slow down the rebound or turn counter-clockwise to speed up the rebound.
