Setting Proper Sag
Pivot uses di erent sag indicators depending upon
the bike model. The Pivot Shu le uses Sag Indicator B.
1. Always set sag with the blue compression damping
adjust lever turned to the open posi on. ( g. 1)
2. Have the rider stand on the pedals, preferably with
their hydra on pack on, and have them sit down
hard into the saddle to achieve accurate sag se ngs.
The rider does not need to bounce up and down nor
should they sit down gently. If they sit down hard
once, the suspension will cycle well into the stroke
and return to the natural sag se ng with the rider
in the saddle.
3. With the rider in the saddle and not moving, slide
the O-ring up into posi on against the air can. ( g. 2)
4. Once the O-ring is set in place, have the rider slowly
step o the bike so as not to move the O-ring.
5. Make adjustments to the sag by removing or adding
air so that steps 2-4 result in the O-ring lining up
with the red line on the sag indicator ( g. 3). It will
be necessary to cycle the shock a er adding or
subtrac ng air before re-checking sag as the large
Evol nega ve air chamber will need to equalize
pressure with the main chamber each me air is
added or removed. You can do this by pushing down
on the saddle several mes to compress the shock
past the sag point.
Setting Compression Damping on the Fox
DPX2
The compression damping lever is a tuning tool to adjust compression support.
All bikes can be run in the open posi on at all mes and s
Riders under 82 [kg] (180 [lbs]) will generally run the shock in the open posi on most of the
me.
Riders over 82 [kg] (180 [lbs]) and aggressive riders may prefer the middle se ng for more
mid-stroke support.
The rmest se ng is best suited for riding to the trail, long re road climbs, and smooth XC
courses.
Setting Open Mode Adjust on the Fox DPX2
Only available on Team XTR Builds
The Open Mode Adjust screw ne tunes the compression damping in the open posi on.
The adjustment screw is a 3mm hex screw inside the top of the compression damping lever.
This adjuster o ers 10 addi onal ne tune adjustments for the open mode.
Turning the screw clockwise will increase low speed compression damping; turning the
screw counter-clockwise will decrease low speed compression damping.
Most riders will nd 7 clicks from full open is a good star ng point.
