Measuring Static Sag and Free Sag are fundamental suspension setup procedures.
Many people are aware of Sag and its importance in good suspension performance. However, because of lack of awareness in this area most people do not take friction into account. This makes the numbers inconsistent.
> These instructions assume you have the Pro Kit with transducers mounted on both the front and the rear but of course you can do it one end at a time.
Definitions > Static Sag (a.k.a. Race Sag) is the amount the bike compresses from fully extended, with the rider on board.
> Free Sag is the amount the bike compresses from fully extended without the rider on board. It is measured only after the Static Sag has been set. The procedure is identical to that of measuring Sag except without the rider.
> Stiction Zone is a measurement of the static friction in the suspension. |
