How do you set rebound on rear shocks?
To set your suspension’s rebound damping,
find a kerb. Dial off all your rebound damping to minimum. Ride off the kerb, while standing up on the pedals, at slow to mid-paced speed
. Your suspension will probably compress, quickly re-extend (past the sag point), compress again and then re-extend again.

What does a lowering link do?
Longer “lowering” links, effectively
move the bottom shock mount closer to the ground, thus reducing the seat height
. Lowering links are able to lower a motorcycle anywhere from a half inch to 2 inches (12.7mm – 50.8mm) depending on the motorcycle and lowering links available.
Does lowering a bike affect handling?
Even if you lower your bike by the book,
handling can be affected to some degree
. “When you lower a bike, you also lower its center of gravity, so it’ll handle a bit better in certain circumstances,” says Langley. “The negative is that your initial ground clearance is decreased.
What pressure should my rear shock be?
The exact PSI you end up with depends on how plush/firm you want the rear shock to be, but a good starting point is
1 psi for 1 lbs in weight of the rider
(including riding gear). Then just add/remove air to your liking.
What is shock sag?
Sag is
the amount the shocks move under the weight of your body, bike shoes, helmet any other gear you carry when you’re just sitting on the bike
. Having it properly adjusted ensures the shocks are neither too stiff nor too soft.
How much sag do you get from rear suspension?
For the rear shock –
20% – 30% sag is recommended
. For the most part, this can be used across the board for trail bikes and downhill bikes. Again, keep in mind you may want more or less sag depending on your bike, weight, and riding preferences.
