2cnd site member shops on ebay methinks. :'(
I decided to back off my damping to min and go out and work back to a comfort vs control compromise .
I have 2 rings preload, pics with cable ties after ride showing fork travel, which was 98mm with no clearance problems , the sag shown is 25mm.
Considering the forks are supposed to have 140mm travel this worries me a bit with only 10mm or so left before contact ,
but if I didnt know I could fit R1 or R6 legs I would be happy now.
Felt no need to touch the damping although it would benefit from a bit more support when really hard on the brakes and after checking that travel I think I shall retreat a bit up the legs and further monitor things.
Its the best Ive experienced so far and I dont believe it either with those settings but there you go. :rollin
Is the 2cnd site member fitting the 5sl forks as standard or tweaked?
