LATE ENTRY::  Big Grin
More weight over the front wheel resulting from the nose dive (forks compressing) helps the bike slow quicker.
Does your front often bottom out? [b]Back wheel feel like it's leaving the road, skipping sideways?  If yes to either then compression is probably too soft.

But couldn't this also be due to lack of rebound damping on the rear shock? (I'll have Frosties' head exploding before I'm through here  :b )
Absolutely but that just adds to confusion.  Question answered by dive essentially being good for breaking.

Quote:But as you met ion it feels harsh over poor rutted ground (I presume you're still talking about the front)  this is indication of compression too hard.  Oh a contradiction.

Yeah leave out the contradictions will ya, ya goat shagger  :lol
