Setting Proper Sag - Pivot Shuttle Lt Benutzerhandbuch

SETTING PROPER SAG

1. Always set sag with the climb switch lever to the
open position. (fig. 1)
2. If your shock has additional compression and
rebound adjustments ensure they are adjusted to be
fully open, compression to the softest setting, and
rebound to its fastest setting. Do this by rotating
them fully counter-clockwise. (fig. 1)
3. If not installed already, attach the sag indicator to
the bottom of the shock body using the provided zip-
tie and carefully cut the excess. (fig. 2)
4. Find a level surface and something to steady
yourself while mounted on the bike so you can be on
the pedals in a seated position. It may be easier to
have a partner hold your bike steady from the front,
by holding the handlebars while you are in your
riding position.
5. While standing on the pedals, sit down hard into the
saddle to cycle the suspension well into the stroke.
This will ensure the bike comes to rest at the natural
sag setting with the you in the saddle.
6. While in the saddle and not moving, slide the O-ring
up into position against the air can. (fig. 3)
7. Once the O-ring is set in place, slowly step off the bike so as not to move the O-ring.
8. Make adjustments to the sag by removing or adding air so that steps 4-7 result in the O-ring lining up
with the red line on the sag indicator.
When adjusting air pressure in the shock, cycle the shock several times at least 25% into its travel before
re-checking sag, so the negative air chamber equalizes pressure with the main chamber each time air is
added or removed. You can do this by pushing down on the saddle to compress the shock past the sag
point.
*Do not exceed the maximum air pressure indicated on your shock.
