Moustache Lundi 20 Manuel Utilisateur page 72

For suspension models with Air/Oil cartridge system
Before starting, ensure you have a high pressure pump and your usual riding gear.
• Place the rubber O-ring against the fork leg.
• Sit on the bike in a normal position and wearing your usual riding kit (helmet, bag
and accessories...). You can lean against a wall in order to avoid any brusque
movements on the bike.
• Step off your bike gently to avoid a harsh movement and measure the "SAG"
(Figure 22). A SAG that is too weak indicates that there Is too much pressure in
your fork. You should therefore take out air from your suspension. Inversely, a too
high SAG indicates that there is not enough, you should therefore, add air. To do
this:
• Unscrew the valve cap to access the fork valve that enables you to adjust the air
pressure as in the following figure:
• Using a high pressure pump, adjust the fork's air pressure in order to get the de-
sired SAG as in the figure above. Be careful to not pass the maximum air pressure
that your fork can handle! This value can be found In the manufacturer's notice.
• Sit on the bike as described previously and check the SAG. Repeat these steps
until you find the right level.
Other settings can be carried out so you profit as much as possible from your suspension
system. Refer to the dedicated notice or go to your local bike retailer.
Hint: If your fork is not equipped with a rubber O-ring that you can use
to see the SAG position, you can place a plastic zip tie on the fork stanchion
which will carry out the same function.
