How do I set up Fox shock?
Setting Shock Air Pressure
- Turn the 3-position lever to the OPEN mode.
- Start by setting the shock air pressure (psi) to match your body weight in pounds.
- Remove the pump.
- Sit still on the bike in your normal riding position, using a wall or a tree for support.
What pressure should my front shocks be?
All in all, the front fork should sag approximately 20% of its total length when you sit idly on the bike. So if your total front suspension travel is 100 mm, the fork should sag roughly 20 mm.
What’s the difference between a shock pump and tire pump?
A shock pump is designed to fill a very small volume of space with very high air pressures. A tire pump is designed to fill a large volume of air, to relatively low pressures, pretty quickly.
What are the settings for float X CTD shocks?
FLOAT X CTD w/Adj models allow for added fine tuning. FLOAT X CTD w/Adj model shocks feature a three-position Trail Adjust control that regulates low-speed compression damping only in Trail mode. 1 is the softest setting, 2 is the medium setting, and 3 is the firmest setting.
What’s the best CTD mode for a shock?
Rotate the blue CTD lever fully counter-clockwise to set the shock to Descend mode. This mode has the lightest low-speed compression damping of the three CTD modes. Descend mode offers the most plush ride to ensure optimal traction over varied terrain.
How do I Set my float X CTD to descend mode?
Unscrew the black air cap to expose the schrader valve. Slide your shocks sag setting o-ring up against the shock dust wiper. Rotate the CTD lever to the Descend mode (down in-line with the piggyback reservoir). If you have a FLOAT X CTD Remote shock, click the black release lever once to set the shock to Descend mode.
What to do with a float CTD bike?
If you have a FLOAT CTD Remote shock, click the black release lever once to set the shock to Descend mode. Dressed to ride (including a filled hydration pack, if you use one), position your bike next to a wall or table to support yourself.
