Consumer Safety Information
Riding a bike is dangerous. Not properly maintaining or inspecting your bike is even more dangerous. It's also
dangerous not to read these Instructions.
1. Before riding the bicycle, be sure the brakes are properly installed and adjusted. If the brakes don't work
properly, the rider could suffer serious and/or fatal injuries.
2. If the shock ever loses oil or if it makes sounds of excessive topping out, stop riding the bicycle immediately
and have the shock inspected by a dealer or call RockShox. Continuing to ride with the shock in either of
these conditions could result in loss of control of the bicycle with possible serious and/or fatal injuries.
3. Always use genuine RockShox parts. Use of after-market replacement parts voids the warranty and could
cause structural failure to the shock. Structural failure could result in loss of control of the bicycle with
possible serious and/or fatal injuries.

Installation
It is extremely important that your RockShox SID rear shock is installed correctly by a qualified technician with
proper tools. Consult your bicycle manufacturers instructions for proper installation of your SID shock. Improperly
installed SID shocks can be extremely dangerous and can result in severe and/or fatal injuries.
Tuning
By adjusting the air pressure, the SID rear shock can be tuned for your particular weight, riding style, and terrain.
You may benefit by making tuning adjustments to suit your specific needs.
When tuning suspension, always make one change at a time and write it down. This allows you to understand how
each change affects your ride.

ETTING
Sag is the amount of shock travel that is used as the rider sits stationary on the bike. Typically, sag is 15 to 30 percent
of all available wheel travel. Check with your bicycle manufacturer to determine the rear wheel travel and
recommended sag for your particular bike before setting sag. For the SID rear shock you will be changing the spring
rate to set sag.
Adjusting main chamber air pressure determines the spring rate, or stiffness, of the shock. The more air you put in
the firmer your shock will be. Maintain air pressure between 100 and 300 psi.

ELECTING THE AIR PRESSURE
PRING RATE
1. Depressurize the main and opposing air chamber by removing the air cap and depressing the valve core
stems.
2. Because every bike is different, a good starting point is to pressurize the main air chamber to an air pressure
equaling your body weight.
